CreativiTEA (Week 4)

About CreativiTEA (Week 4)

Course Outline:

CreativiTEA offers a valuable opportunity for local people (18yrs+) to meet and share their life experiences and feelings through image/art making and discussion. A person does not need to be 'good at art' to engage in CreativiTEA sessions. Although the facilitator is an Art Therapist and a Visual Artist this is not an Art Therapy group or skills based session. Artwork is not judged in any way on its aesthetic or technical merits, rather it is an expression unique to that individual and therefore valued as important to them. The most simple paint mark or manipulation of a piece of clay can offer a meaningful form of self-expression and communication.

Each session is a complete workshop in itself. There will be an introductory exercise, time for making, refreshments and participants will be invited to share/discuss their art work and to explore any feelings arising from it. The facilitator is very experienced and creates a safe, nurturing and fun space for exchange and exploration.

Creating Together

In this workshop we will be creating a large image as a group using charcoal and paint. By moving around the picture plane we will be exploring how we negotiate space, forge connections and leave our own mark.
