I started this group because so many of us have forgotten the pure creative spirit that enveloped us as children. Whether it was experienced at play, drawing, painting, reading, telling stories, making up songs, building things or taking things apart!, dressing up, dancing, singing, playing an instrument, writing and most of all the forgotten art of daydreaming and fantasizing. These activities get lost in the "Everydays" of life as we grow older. For some it is lost early on while others can ma …

Unblock your creativity, let it flow! Come to these transformative intuitive art classes and learn to expand your imagination through interactive guided meditations and painting. Crystal singing bowls are played during the meditation.

The Creative Collective is dedicated to fostering a creative and nurturing community for artists, artisans and art lovers in the Mercer County area of New Jersey.  It is our goal to facilitate display and teaching opportunities as well as to provide a friendly and supportive atmosphere for art critique and inspiration. This group is for serious artists and artisans.  This is not a singles group.

As artists, we spend most of our creative time alone. Creating art is a very singular, solitary task. With "The Artist's Way" as a guide, we can create a community of support and encouragement. The following quote from the author's website sums it up: "When The Artist's Way was first published, I expressed a wish for Artist’s Way groups to spring into being. I envisioned them as peer-run circles—“creative clusters”—where people would serve one another as believing mirrors, uniting with the …

Being new to Berks County, I'd love to find a diverse group of creative people interested in an inspirational, imaginative, no obligation group where meetups would include working on arts and crafts projects ( if you're anything like any other crafter I know, you have tons of unfinished projects), and sharing tips, tricks, techniques, and ideas. I have always believed that for me, art is the truest form and outlet for spiritual freedom. Because art is an outward expression of yourself, there are …

I started this group because I was interested in meeting people around my age who share my addiction to Pinterest; specifically the arts and crafts side of it. How many times do you pin an awesome DIY project and then never end up making it? Pinterest Party Pals was designed for fellow crafters to unite and create a unique project inspired by Pinterest while socializing and sharing ideas with other members. You should only consider joining this group if you meet all three of the following criter …

Gay men present with different life experiences than others and often find it difficult to share deeply personal and moving experience with others who are not gay. Therefore, this group is open to men, of any age, who are, gay and who wish to …

Artists tend to create their art in solitude, then show their work to non-artists or the public for feed back. Most often the feedback is based on personal taste or a bias towards a certain type of art. Do you ever long for constructive feedback, the kind that helps you dig deep and find what you need to keep your work fresh and evolving? The kind that your only your fellow artists, your peers, can bring? Me too! That's why I started Juxtapose, for the fellowship, support and critical feedback t …

(Like the photo?  This is something I manifested 2 years ago--my back yard at sunrise.  Three years ago we were living in Stamford, CT in a neighborhood where my kids (in fact, our whole family) had no friends and my husband was traveling almost an hour and a half into NYC to a job he hated and which left him very little family time.  Now we live in a BEAUTIFUL Chadds Ford, PA neighborhood, where we all have tons of friends and my husband travels 20 minutes to work, and is even able to meet me f …
