CRAFT YOUR FUTURE - Make something from the dreams in your head
Your chance to give yourself some creative playtime and get the dreams in your head down on paper.
Off the back of the successful Feb 2023 event I will be running sessions quarterly until the end of 2023, you can come once or come to all three to keep growing your vision as the year progresses.
The session will be facilitated by , artist, coach & mentor.
The style will be informal, well-paced, and gently creative workshop to support you play around with creative materials, meet & chat with like-minded people and get to experience the beautiful creative community space at.
You will be supplied with all the materials to leave with your own version of a 'vision board'. Please bring a bag to take it home in i.e. a carrier bag or black binliner, in case the glue still need to set.
Feel free to bring along your own bits and pieces, as we want you to feel as comfortable and at ease as possible.
Water and glasses will be provided in the room. MerseyMade has a cafe you can visit and bring up any drinks or food into the session.
This event is an opportunity to open up conversations between like minded people about who we are, how we are feeling and what inspires about life to boost feelings of connection, hope and inspiration.

FAQs
Do I need any previous experience? No - this is very much a come along, get involved as much or a little as you can session. You don't need to be an artist, just someone who is open to having a go. The method used is collaging which involves ripping or cutting up pictures or text from magazines or other upcycled materials to form your own 'picture' of the dreams you have or goals.
