Travelling Workshops for Education
The first time I was asked to run a full-day training workshop I was terrified. That was nearly 8 years ago and since then I have not only run countless workshops with a wide variety of ages, interests and needs. I have grown to love the interaction with people and seeing their creativity raise to the surface. Workshops can run from 1hr to 1 week and as I said can be organised for any age, culture, interest, profession. The primary part of the workshop is about Play and opening up to your own creative spirit. The materials stay pretty much the same, everyday objects, but the desired outcome and questions are created by the client and I in conversation.
