Art Development & Creative Support

These gatherings offer mentorship and support for creative practice, life art, and composition. Each of the different practices of the grove offer entryway into creative evolution, instigate agency, and invite articulation, and support body-connection. So, one can enter through any of the avenues. Where are you most drawn? What sparks something for you? An essential principle of Taoist elemental understandings shows us that the more we do what we enjoy, the more we can access our purpose. So, there is a direct value and impact in tending, intending, and attending to the creative aspects of daily life. For some folks creative practice is more accessible or fruitful one-on-one, for others in groups, for some, on one's own, though for many a mix depending on the moment, intention, and project. Through conversation, self-reflection, moving, writing, and through mixing media, each person enters as works for them.
