Creative Club
Can creativity support confidence growth?
Join us for a brand-new Creative Club series where we’ll explore the connection between creativity and resilience. Using a range of playful and reflective techniques, we’ll experiment with how creative practice might help us feel braver, freer, and more self-assured.
Creativity is proven to support overall wellbeing; can it also help us grow in confidence? Together, we’ll find out! Through a mix of guided exercises and open exploration, you’ll have the chance to test new ideas and discover what creativity means to you.
This series will culminate in an exhibition at The Art House this December, showcasing some of your creations around the theme of wellbeing (participants will be asked if they would like to participate; workshops may produce pieces to share or build up to the creation or original work).
No prior art experience (or belief in your own “artistic skill”) is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to play. All basic materials are provided, but please bring your own sketchbook if you have one. We’ll also have paper options available, and sketchbooks for purchase if you’d like one.
Please note: we are not mental health professionals. If you require mental health support, we encourage you to seek guidance from appropriate services.
