Tending The Creative Garden In Times of Transition : Spring Edition

Step gently into spring with a reflective and supportive container to explore your creativity, your energy and what’s emerging in your life.

Thursdays 6:30pm- 8:00pm CST - April 2-30th 2026
Transition spaces between seasons can feel unsettled. Our creativity can reflect that, showing up scattered, or blocked. Your energy can feel pulled in different directions.
During Tending in times of Transition, we will cultivate a gentle container to slow down, to reflect and tend what is emerging within us at this time.
