Me, My Strengths and I

This 90-minute session looks at the science and tools of positive psychology to be more effective in your art practice, your business and at home, helping you to flourish.

INFORM in 2024 is focusing on three key pillars - Artist's Personal Well-Being, Sustainable Arts Practice and Communication Development - this session has been developed as a reflective and engaging workshop that primarily considers Artist's Personal Well-Being.

We recognise many artists, craftspeople and designers may not have access to the various tools, training and frameworks that can support the reflection, analysis and consideration of how these different methods and approaches may reveal more of themselves - to themselves. This session is a dive into some of the frameworks that build our internal worlds, supporting you in exploring and accessing different models and research to consider how and where these perspectives might support your ongoing personal and professional well-being.
