🎨 Weekly Artist Guild Circle [members only]

​The Artist Guild Circle meets weekly @6pm on Wednesdays. (Location: 550 Studio)

​What

• ​We will focus on creating a space where people can explore their artistry while harnessing the tension between the freedom to explore and imagine and discipline to improve your craft

• ​This means 1) unblocking one’s own capacity to be an artist, 2) actually making art and encouraging each other to do so, and 3) sharing art to get feedback and collaborate.

​Who Should Join

• ​Anyone who can commit to the circle community and making/sharing art more than ever before

​Weekly Schedule

• ​​Week 1-2: Building Community: These initial weeks focus on establishing trust within the group through specific activities and sharing and setting intentions through dialogues.

• ​​Week 3-5: Exploration: During this phase, we will venture into various artistic realms and explore our artistic desires to broaden our perspectives and skills (i.e. trying different mediums, art field trips, etc…) while also encouraging each other to commit to making art (accountability/sharing)

• ​​Week 6-8: Expression: The final weeks will be devoted to further honing our individual expressions, culminating in a small project or presentation + end of quarter reflection.

​Core Values

• ​​Non-judgment & Trust: Together, we will co-create a safe space where each of us can freely share our joys and hardships without fear of judgment.

• ​​Loving Accountability: We are here to inspire and keep each other accountable in a way that is caring and empathetic rather than punitive.

• ​​Expression: At its core, our circle aims to cultivate the freedom and courage for every member to express their true selves.
