Creative Nature Circle

You're signing up to receive updates for the circle.

Slow down. Step outside. Create… and come back to yourself.

Creative Nature Circles are gentle, guided gatherings

where we step out of the noise of everyday life and reconnect - with creativity, nature, and something more honest within ourselves.

But more than that…these circles are spaces to soften the pressure, loosen the rules, and remember how to create freely again.

Not for perfection. But for presence. These are not art classes. There’s nothing to get right. Nothing to prove.

Just space to breathe…to notice…to explore…and to let something real move through you.

No experience needed - just curiosity, openness, and a willingness to show up as you are.

What Happens in a Circle

We begin by arriving - together. A few quiet moments to slow down, breathe, and come back into the present moment. And then… we create.

Not from pressure. Not from expectation. But from curiosity.

You might paint the colors of a leaf...the movement of water…or something that has no name yet.

You might follow a feeling. A color. A quiet inner pull.

There’s no right way to do this. This is about expression - not outcome. And as you allow yourself to create this way… something begins to shift.

The mind softens. The body relaxes. Your senses awaken.

And the part of you that knows how to create - without overthinking, without self-doubt - begins to come back online.

What You’ll Experience

These circles offer space to:

  • Slow down and reset your nervous system

  • Reconnect with nature and your senses

  • Create freely—without judgment or pressure

  • Let go of perfection and explore what wants to emerge

  • Share space with others in a real, relaxed, human way

  • Feel more like yourself again

And somewhere in the process intuition begins to speak again- naturally.

Who This Is For

These circles are for you if you feel the pull to:

  • spend more time in nature

  • reconnect with your creativity (even if you think you’re “not creative”)

  • step away from constant busyness and noise

  • express yourself in a more honest, unfiltered way

  • be in community without needing to perform

This is a space where you don’t have to have it together. You don’t have to be “on.” You don’t have to be anything other than who you are.

You just get to show up… and create.

How the Circles Work

Creative Nature Circles are offered in two ways:

In Person - Art in the Park

Seasonal outdoor gatherings where we create surrounded by nature.

Online Circles

Live virtual gatherings where you create from home while staying connected to community.

You can join individual sessions or seasonal series. All levels welcome.

A Different Way to Create

Most of us were taught that creativity is about getting it right. These circles are about something else entirely.

They’re about letting it be messy. Letting it be imperfect. Letting it be yours.

When we create this way, something opens. We return to presence. We reconnect with ourselves.

We remember that creativity isn’t something we do - it’s something we are.
