Are you a creative practitioner working in the arts, health and wellbeing space in Cornwall? Would you like an opportunity to discuss your experiences with others and benefit from peer support? Arts Well, thanks to funding from Cornwall Council, is hosting a series of free workshops where creative practitioners can have time to reflect and renourish themselves whilst also enjoying a creative workshop.
In 2022 we asked creative practitioners what development and support needs they had and overwhelmingly they said they wanted a space to talk with others, to share successes and challenges, and to discuss issues relating to creative health practice. They also spoke about having the opportunity to experience a creative workshop for themselves. This programme has been developed in response to that.
Susanna Webster has significant experience of running creative community sessions across galleries, museums and festivals such as Tate St Ives, Royal Cornwall Museum and Larmer Tree and Towersey Festival.
Zoetrope Workshop
In this workshop Susanna will be making Zoetropes and Kaleidoscopes with the group and we will hope to make use of the outdoor environment as part of the session if the weather is fine.
There will be time for informal discussion about our practice as creative health professionals and we will end with a vegetarian lunch.
The session is free to practitioners working in Cornwall and places are limited.
