Course Description

An opportunity to share creativity and joy among friends and present your work, either in aspiring or tentative forms of writing, song, poetry and painting.

Share work in progress with others and explore the ways in which true creativity never leaves its centre, yet expresses itself uniquely in diverse ways and through each and every one of us…knowing the Unity of Being never leaves the essential purity of its source.
