Classes:

Creativity Toolbox – All Levels

Saturday 7/31. 10:00 – 11:30 am MDT

$30 class (no recording).

Prerequisites: An open mind and urge to play!

What tickles your creative mind and spirit? How do we get into a creative mindset? This workshop provides specific tools for your toolbox. From what inspires you now ­­–– to sourcing for new inspiration, and how to turn your ideas into whatever creative project you want to undertake (movement, visual art, song, etc). Working with writing prompts and tabletop creative exercises, you’ll come away stimulated with fresh ideas.

Supplies: paper / pen.
