Traveling to the Blender Conference in Amsterdam
This year's Blender conference in Amsterdam is from October 26th to 28th. Our sister project, the Blender Market, is a silver sponsor, so please be sure to stop by the table to say hello to Amber, Jason, and Jonathan on Thursday, the 26th.
We're hosting a Blender creator meetup and participating in a few talks to keep a lookout for the schedule.
I cannot encourage this more if you've never attended a Blender Conference in Amsterdam. It's a great way to meet face-to-face with many community members, learn, and fuel the tanks with enough motivation to carry you through the following year.
If you cannot make it to the Amsterdam conference, no worries; there is now a North America Blender conference coming up in April of 2024, hosted by CG Cookie(Us!)
New Blender Training - MODIFY
It's an exciting time to be a member of CG Cookie, with new courses releasing and the imminent release of MACRO in November. This month, you can expect two helpful Blender tutorials to help elevate you in your Blender journey.
Stay tuned for November, when Kent's long-anticipated MACRO is scheduled for release, and we've got you covered for the Blender 4.0 release with a reboot of our basics with Jonathan Lampel.
DENOISE | A podcast about Blender
What's happening in the Blender world? CG Cookie hosts this podcast and cuts through the noise surrounding the leading open-source 3D software.
Some of the best-known Blender teachers and their prominent guests take a fresh look at current Blender discussions with expertise and humor.
The final episode of season one of Denoise drops on October 6th.

Join the Halloween Community Challenge!
Drawing inspiration from the captivating "SESSIONS: Minimalism" course by CG Cookie, we invite you to breathe life into Halloween's essence through your 3D renders.
Picture a full moon inhabited by flitting bats or a graveyard transitioning eerily from daylight to a haunting night. Envision a museum dominated by a glowing Jack-o'-lantern beneath a moonlit sky.
Embrace the spirit from October 1st to the witching hour of October 31st. And as the clock strikes midnight, let the magic begin!
Read more about this month's challenge and how to participate.
