My Workshop

I recently got asked "What are some ways to keep our creative juices flowing?" during a volunteer session I anchored for Craft Alliance Industry! We talked about gardening, spending time with children, having a community of creatives as support, and looking at the creative works of others - just to mention a few. In this conversation, I will be sharing fun tips from my experience of working with over 5,000 children in my 12 year career on how to keep the creative juices flowing!
