Artist Dates~Defined

Click the image to learn about Artist Dates


The Artist Date is a once-weekly, festive, solo expedition to explore something that interests you. The Artist Date need not be overtly “artistic”– think mischief more than mastery. ~Julia Cameron

Are you ready to spend each week going on an Artist Date?  Will you take time each week to pull from your inner well?  How will you refill your consciousness each week?

As teachers, creatives and artists, it is so important to take time to fill the well.  Will you join me in sharing your weekly artists dates this school year?  Let's support each other and journey beyond the classroom to keep in touch with our creative selves!

Starting on October 3, 2011 through June 4, 2012 this blog will give you a place to do that!

Each week on Monday, a blog post will be sent to you.   Just a simple reminder to take time each week to "creatively play" to "enchant yourself", to take yourself on an Artist Date.  You take yourself on an Artist Date and share your thoughts and experience with us here on this blog.

All you need to do is send your email address to sloughri@oaisd.org with Artist Date in the Subject line and I will add you to this group list!  It is that simple.  You can join in at any time.  We will be here to support each other and learn how others "fill the creative well" amidst busy work schedules.

Plan out what creative exploration will be on your list for the week.  Commit to it!  and let us know in the comments below how it went.  You can share as little or as much as you like.  We may get inspired by your ideas! And you will set the intention to be creative every week!
