Feeling stuck? Unleash your inner artist in a vibrant Expressive Arts Workshop.
Through a dynamic mix of improvised theater, movement, writing, and visual arts exercises, you’ll discover new ways to express yourself and dissolve blocks that have been holding you back.

What is Expressive Arts? Expressive Arts is a liberating creative practice where movement, music, visual art, and improv collide to unlock playfulness and self expression. It’s not about perfection—it’s about diving into spontaneity and discovering new ways to connect with yourself and others.

Why do Expressive Arts? If you are feeling stuck or bogged down or stretched thin, this workshop will help you rejuvenate and cultivate energy again through your own creativity. Through creative expression we can transform "stale" energy in our lives and reconnect with our hearts and needs and dreams. Whether you're an experienced performer or just looking to tap into your creative side, this work is all about breaking free, having fun, and letting your imagination run wild.

About the Workshop: This workshop is mostly play-centered with a bit of extra time for self reflection. You will be guided through a number of arts-based exercises, starting with a check in to allow participants to bring in whatever they wish into the space and then go through a variety of exercises that engage us in movement, writing, and acting, all using improv to explore these tools of expression.

No arts background is needed! Expressive Arts allows us to express ourselves through any and all of the arts forms without needing technical skills in any. It is a low skill high sensitivity practice - no arts training needed to tap into our imagination and play.
