Creative Joy Lab

Creative Joy Lab is a fully guided, in-person creative experience for women who want to let go of perfection and reconnect with joy through bad, funny, collaborative art.

Led by an occupational therapist, this gathering invites you into a playful, supportive space where you’ll be guided through multiple creative modalities each session — including drama, movement, visual art, creative writing, and music. Every activity is designed to be process-focused, imperfect, and shared, with an emphasis on creativity, bravery, and connection rather than outcomes or skill. The goal is to engage in a meaningful occupation that fosters joy, connection, and self-discovery. OTs are experts in adapting activities so everyone can participate fully, regardless of experience, comfort level, or ability.

This is not an art class and not therapy, but it is deeply supportive and restorative. You don’t need any creative experience, just a willingness to show up, try something new, and make a little mess together.

In Creative Joy Lab, you’re invited to:

• make art that’s intentionally imperfect and often humorous
• experiment across different creative forms
• collaborate rather than perform
• laugh, move, and create alongside other women
• practice being seen without needing to get it right

All materials are provided.
We give each other Applause only, no critique.
No pressure to share personally unless you want to.
