The question is not whether someone is creative, but rather what areas bring out their creativity. Together, participants and faculty will form a “creative community” and in
highly interactive sessions will participate in exercises designed to increase sensory awareness and experiment with different ways to tap intuitive capabilities.

Participants will learn about their creative process and those of others, reflect on where in life they express creative energy, and discover the conditions that nurture it. Additionally, participants will explore their resistance to creative pursuits, what blocks them, and strategies for overcoming blocks and building creative energy and commitment.

The workshop will include some theory but will primarily be experience based. Participants should come prepared to experiment, share, and have fun.

Benefits

Participants will:

  • Use their senses and other exercises to increase awareness.
  • Get a clearer understanding of their own personal creative process and what supports it.
  • Increase and channel their creative energy.
  • Articulate specific intentions as to what type of experiences or outcomes they want to create as a result of harnessing creative energy more effectively.
  • Explore how to establish a “creative space and habit” in daily life.

Participants

This workshop is intended for people of all backgrounds and disciplines who are interested in exploring their creative process.

“The creativity program was incredibly insightful and applicable. The program helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses in creativity, and provided me with concrete ways to apply this knowledge in many facets of my personal and professional life. This is far more than just figuring out if there’s an artist inside all of us, but rather reframing what it means to be ‘creative,’ and to apply that learning at home, work and life. This course is relevant to both creative professionals as well as general business professionals as we all need to be as creative as possible in growing our companies and achieving our goals.”
