Creative Journaling is a wonderful way of gathering and exploring creative ideas through image and the written word. It can also be used as a way of overcoming creative challenges, or to investigate ideas.

This workshop stands as an introduction to ignite and fuel the imagination. It is suitable for all creative and would be creative, whether your leaning is towards the visual or written word and will also be an opportunity to meet and network with others.

We will go on a guided journey to meet and converse with our creative selves, responding through drawing, writing, collage paint and more. Participants will be given an A5 journal that will be used to document findings and ideas throughout the day, this journal will hopefully become the launch pad for projects, proposals and further exploration.

All materials are included in the cost of the workshop but we would ask you to bring along the following:

• Things you might want to include for collage and relief printing (e.g. images, ephemera, materials with interesting textures, etc).
• A photo of yourself and any other images you want to use as a starting point, we will be able to photocopy small images if the originals can’t be used.

Places are limited and pre-booking is required. To learn about the Covid-19 safety measures we have put in place please read the following information about your visit to Exeter Phoenix >>
