About the event
Creating an Artful Practice
Eight Week Condensed Summer Course
This quick (but potentially transformative) course is designed to help you reconnect with your creative spark. This is a guided course that you do at your pace, place, time. There will be short (easily accomplished) daily assignments and small weekly readings, prompts, and inspirational projects, which are fluid and can be tailored to your schedule. Each week will have a unique focus designed to cultivate the experience of wonder and to help you tap into your personal creative expressiveness. We will meet three times during the course—either in a safely-distanced setting or virtually to talk about insights, inspirations, and discoveries.
