Spaces of Creation: Saturday, July 30, 2:30 p.m. - 6 p.m.
Inside every human being is a wellspring of creative consciousness
that provides the energy for all artistic, analytic,
expressive behavior. This body/mind workshop will take
you on a journey into your own spaces of creation where
ideas are born and spontaneous impulses are generated free
from the fear of failure. Together we will explore techniques
to help you access your own inner resources in writing
and in movement. Our goal is to restructure change and
self-awareness so that you may find the fullness of yourself
in the depth of your creation.
