This workshop blends creativity and personal reflection to help you create a visually compelling board of intentions, goals, and dreams – using collage writing and found imagery as tools for clarity. With curated materials like vintage books, a portable typewriter, and inspiring prompts, you’ll build a symbolic map of the life you truly want.

Rooted in research from neuroscience and psychology, vision boarding transforms abstract hopes into tangible imagery – boosting motivation, focus, and alignment. It’s a high-energy, communal experience that invites connection, insight, and shared creativity. Participants often leave not only with a beautiful collage, but with renewed purpose and a deeper sense of what matters most. 

Snow Date: Sunday, February 1 from 11AM - 1PM.

Think you can’t draw? Never taken an art class? Struggle with perfectionism? This creative empowerment workshop is designed just for you. You’ll learn to draw a feather from observation – breaking it down into simple shapes, lines, and textures. With guidance from Art Coach Jenny Santa Maria, you’ll see that drawing isn’t about talent – it’s a skill anyone can learn. The process is often surprising and deeply affirming.

Jenny specialized in helping people unlearn the myth that they “aren’t artistic.” Whether you’re anxious, curious, or creatively blocked, this workshop offers a supportive space to build confidence and reconnect with your creativity.

No experience necessary, and all materials provided.
