DESCRIPTION:Registration is now closed. You have registered by January 19 to attend this series of workshops. Contact Sharon J.

Do you have creative goals but have difficulty getting started with making things happen? Do you need support to make your creative dreams a reality? Are you already a practicing creative who needs inspiration and encouragement to keep producing? \nYou are cordially invited to join the Creative Revival Artist’s Way Circle\, a facilitated group by artist and curator Sharon Burton that will meet once a week for 12 weeks as we go through The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. Together\, we will share our journey into finding your creative “Muse” whether it expresses itself through art or just finding a new creative career. The program is focused on supporting relationships in removing artistic blocks and fostering confidence. The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path To Higher Creativity is a self-help book by author Julia Cameron. The book was originally produced to assist individuals with artistic creative recovery\, by teaches techniques and exercises to assist in gaining self-confidence in harnessing creative talents and skills. \nEach week we will meet to discuss each chapter of the book\, our daily journaling practice (via “The Morning Pages”)\, weekly Artist’s Dates that you select to inspire yourself and other insights that you wish to share on this special journey. Each participant will receive The Artist’s Way book and journal for the program\, as well as access to a Facebook Group and a group of other artists and creatives moving through the journey with you. \nNOTE: Materials fee pays for “The Artist’s Way Starter Kit”\, including Cameron’s two most important Artist’s Way tools: “The Artist’s Way” and “The Artist’s Way Morning Pages Journal”. Participants may also bring their own copy of the book and a journal and decline the materials fee. \n\n\nAbout the Instructor: Sharon J.

SUMMARY:"New Beginnings" Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The opening reception will be held tonight. The snow has stopped\, and the walkway is shoveled and salted. Come out and have some fun in this winter wonderland. See you at the gallery! \nNew Beginnings  Art Exhibit\nFebruary 1-24\, 2019\nOpening Reception: Friday\, February 1 from 7-9pm\n“Flower Gears” by Tracy Wilkerson\nThe EPA estimates that 75% of the American waste stream is recyclable\, but we only recycle about 30% of it.

These creations incorporate at least half of their materials from either found objects\, recycled materials or older works of art.
