I'm on a mission to inspire more creativity in this world -- even for those who think they don't have "a creative bone" in their body. This 2-hour workshop is a playful creative + painting experience for anyone who has ever said: “I’m not creative.”
So many of us carry a belief that creativity is reserved for the gifted few. That belief keeps us from experimenting, playing, and surprising ourselves. The result? We lose access to a wellspring of imagination, innovation (in work and life), fun, and joy that can recharge our lives outside of work, family, and responsibilities.
If you’ve ever said things like:
“I can’t draw a straight line.”
“I’m just not artistic.”
“I wouldn’t even know where to start.”
…you’re not alone. Most of us were taught to believe creativity is for “other people.” That belief keeps us stuck, stressed, and playing small.
This is your chance to step into a judgment-free zone where there are no rules, no grades, and no wrong answers.
In just two hours, you’ll:
✨ Let loose with paint, color, and imagination
✨ Discover how fun it feels to create without pressure
✨ Release stress through play and experimentation and even unlock clarity
Leave with your own abstract painting—and a new perspective on creativity and how it impacts LIFE.
Led by award-winning interdisciplinary artist and Governor's Emerging Arts Leader honoree, Akwi Nji, this experience blends professional guidance with freedom to explore.
By the end, you'll leave with your own mini masterpiece and a fresh perspective on what's possible--not just in creativity, but in life.
Spots are limited so everyone receives personalized guidance!🤍
Most appropriate for ages 18+
