Creative Joy and the Artist’s Way
Saturday 6 April 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
FreeDiscover how the creative arts can help you find your inner self and improve your wellbeing.
Let Loose Your Inner Artist!
Are you happy? Does life seem grey? Have you forgotten how to play?
Would you love to be more creative?
Do you feel blocked or stuck creatively or personally?
This is a 10-week course of Self Discovery, Self Recovery, a Re Discovery of your Joyful Self. It can help you shift and unblock those inner walls and set you free again.
Re-connect with your inner artist, your sense of joy de vie, and the Powerful Creative Self that you are.
Express your Self with drawing, painting, writing, collage, clay, mixed media and more.
No experience needed. This is a course for everyone, not just for ‘blocked artists’! You don’t need to be ‘an artist’ or have any art experience or training. Process, not product!
IMPORTANT NOTE
What this course is not! This is NOT a ‘learn how to draw and paint’ art class. It IS about expressing your inner Creative Self, having fun, and finding your Joy, through playing with creative materials.

A review from a past participant:
Participating in Tania Long’s ‘Creative Joy’ was a valuable gift to my creativity, and something of a boost when I was returning to work after a period of many changes.
Tania hosts these sessions with sensitivity and respect, providing useful resources which can be referred to afterwards.
There is a clarity that can be reached when working through this course alongside others, a supportive environment in which I found the space to grow, and move forward.
I am happy to recommend Tania as an experienced facilitator, and this course for its content.
