Are you seeking a clarity in your business AND an excuse to get offline in a small group setting? Participants in this workshop will transform ads, colored paper, ephemera, and quick sketches into a personal reference book. Your host-leader will spark the session with light prompts that apply to different areas of your life, so you can choose to go deep or stay playful as you make pages of a book. Mark-making and paper layering will combine to enable you release tension, bring ideas into the world, and create an artifact uniquely yours. For some, this becomes an invigorating offline hobby — updating the vision binder yearly, seasonally, or quarterly. In your kit for this workshop, you'll receive a heavy duty binder, archival protective sleeves, card stock for each “page”, and decorative paper elements. You will also share our quality stash of household magazines, newspapers and even junk mail that is poised to be transformed. We provide use of all necessary tools (scissors, glue sticks, etc.) and you of course keep your finished binder after the workshop.
Are you deep in your career, and starting to feel like your skills and experience aren’t as well-known as they should be? Designed for individual or small-group self-discovery, this series focuses on identifying content for business development and marketing and — gasp — sharing it. We do not always love this reality, but in business, we have to build our brand in public. Luckily we ALL have expertise we can share, though it might need a touch of outside enthusiasm to polish it up and let it shine! We will meet at the agreed-upon frequency to determine appropriate content; then team up to write, edit, and post (on LinkedIn or company/personal blog). We will identify, nurture, and build the audience, see what resonates (review engagement), and rinse and repeat. Results can include a major win for you or your company, or just as importantly, the confidence and pride that comes with building your personal or company brand in an authentic and relatable way. Success = eventually self-sustaining this habit. It is possible!
Are you ready for scissors, glue, paper, and happiness? In this hybrid workshop (simultaneously over video and in-person at your company office), participants will complete collages based on a visual and/or personal theme. You might even discover a new hobby.
Collage is an art technique of creating a new whole from different forms, such as paper, paint, or photographs. In this workshop, we will sample a few interpretations, mediums and methods to hold it all together.
Upon registration, you’ll receive a package of tools and materials to be used for the class, along with instructions on collecting additional household items, such as magazines and newspapers. All additional items are purely optional, except scissors - sharp scissors are a must!
