Expressive Arts Workshop with Julie Plotkin

In this unique workshop, Julie will hold space and offer guidance for us to connect to our creative innards, trust our inherent creativity, and gently lay aside our doubts. Beginning with a circle and brief check-in, followed by a guided meditation, we will then move into creating visual art. We'll be prompted to do some writing, asking, "What does my art want to communicate to me?" We will then return to our circle and have the opportunity to share and witness each other's work and experiences.

While this is a structure that Julie will follow, there is no requirement to do any of the prompts. You may arrive and feel like gently swaying, or a desire to stare out the window, or write for the entire time. That is all ok and doesn’t diminish your place in the workshop.

About Multi-Modal Expressive Art:
Often, moving from one creative modality to another while holding the thread of curiosity can bring knowledge or coalescence. This creative practice allows our art to arrive, surrendering the need for it to look a certain way. It's an opportunity to explore a question, intention or an open curiosity through multiple creative modalities, like painting, writing, movement, sound making (including voice and instruments), fabric arts, collage, etc.
