Creatives Connecting
Creatives Connecting is a virtual, common interest small group. It provides an opportunity for creatives/artists to connect and interact online - regardless of where on our great planet a person lives. The book The Heart of the Artist (by Rory Noland) will be read and discussed this fall by means of a private blog. Group members are responsible to obtain their own copy of The Heart of the Artist by October 7. For those who are able to attend - our Creatives Connecting small group will get together in person in Winnipeg twice this fall.
​
Creatives/artists who are able to commit to being a part of Creatives Connecting participate by reading one to two chapters of a book - that is relevant to creatives/artists - one week, posting responses to questions the following week, reading another one to chapters the following week, and so on. In striving to ensure a safe and respectful online environment - posts are moderated. This fall and winter we will be reading and responding to each of the chapters in The Heart of the Artist. A second book relevant to creatives/artists will be read and discussed between January and June 2020.
