We’re Not Supposed to Do This Alone 💖
Hello Creative Soul,
Wild and Free hosted its very 1st Baby Shower for a dear friend this weekend, and it was SO MUCH FUN. On any given day in the studio books are exchanged, clementines are shared, tissues are passed, a flower clipping is brought in, stories are told. So many of our needs are met when we gather well. One thing I know for sure is, we are not supposed to do this alone.
Ever since reading Priya Parker‘s book, The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, I find that the more I bring people together...the more I want to bring people together. And that says a lot coming from a certified introvert
If you’re feeling called to gather, create, learn something new, challenge yourself, be moved or make lasting connections, then we have some unique experiences coming up that might be for you.
October – Print What Matters: Value Cards with Mary G, plus our Make-Up
and Drop-In Group.
November/December – Last Process Painting Series of 2025 (new dates
just added).
November – Sound Bath + KAP Conversation. An evening of restoration
and curious questions answered.
All details and registration links are below.
I hope to see you in the studio soon...and bring your stories!
Big Love,
Elissa

October Workshops
Sunday, October 19th from 11AM-4PM: Print What Matters: Value Cards
A workshop exploring core values through art. In Print What Matters, you’ll be guided by Mary Gambarony, to explore your core values through a reflective relief print process. You'll leave with a personal Value Card—a visual expression of what matters most to you right now. When we live in alignment with our core values, we feel more at peace, more fulfilled, and more ourselves
Friday, October 24th from 10AM-12PM: Make-Up & Drop-In Group
If you missed a group in a series and would like to make it up - Join us! No Fee. If you are a first timer and want to begin or a returning painter and want to continue your practice without joining a series - DROP-IN.
November Workshop
Friday, November 7th from 6PM-7:30PM: Exploring Healing: Sound Bath & KAP Conversation
Exhale, settle in, and let the evening begin with a restorative sound bath led by Nicole & Rosie. After the sound bath, stay for an open, judgment-free Q&A on Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)—what it is, how it works, safety and set/setting, and how sound can support preparation and integration.
This is a FREE event. Please register for head count.
