Start a new creative habit that can be the catalyst for a broader creative practice or a practice in itself.

Artist, contemporary jeweller and educator Melinda Young helps you get started in these hands-on Creative Journaling workshops.

“A creative journal can really be anything. There is no exact recipe for making one, however the practice can be a prescription for creativity and self-care.

“A journal can be a place/space to plan a project or procrastinate; to dream and develop ideas; to draw with purpose or doodle; to play; to collaborate; to escape; to write or wonder; a space for lists or loose thoughts; ideas that are meaningful or meandering.

“Your journal may be a means to an end or an object in itself; a thing of utility or of beauty.

“The form your journal takes will be as individual as you are, there is no right or wrong. However, it is desirable that it is something that gives you pleasure and a sense of fulfilment (whatever this means for you).”

Join Melinda to discover what your own creative journal looks like, with only 15 people in each session.

Tickets: $80 (includes the workshop tuition, a blank journal courtesy of Corban and Blair and copy of ADC’s new book Design/Isolate: Creative resilience in a pandemic).
