Broken by Gwen Lafleur

This talk has been canceled.

Instructor: Gwen Lafleur
Date: Saturday, October 12 from 1-2:30pm
Cost: FREE for members, $15 at the door for non-members
(RSVP by October 9)

Join local mixed media artist, designer, and instructor Gwen Lafleur for a discussion on creativity – what it is, how to get it, and how she works on building her own creative practice. Gwen will share some of how she finds and curates inspiration and then some of the ways that she interprets that inspiration for artwork and product design. She’ll also talk about methods for staying inspired and motivated and how she keeps from getting blocked.

For additional guidance and to stretch your own creative self, Gwen Lafleur is teaching The Hanging Art Journal workshop on November 16 at Artistic Artifacts.
