Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about your next move—whether in your creative practice, business, or personal life?
Join artist Jackie Sanders in this practical, guided workshop, where you’ll translate “what matters to me” into concrete choices about how you spend your time, your money, and your creative energy. You’ll start with short reflective exercises to surface your core values, then apply them to some real-life scenarios.
Whether you’re an artist shaping a sustainable creative career or someone seeking more clarity and intention in your life, this class gives you tools you can use immediately. In this hands-on session, expect to turn abstract ideas into everyday practices so that your schedule, finances, and opportunities reflect who you truly are, with more ease and confidence in both daily choices and long-term planning.
This class is part of our series: Momentum 2026: Start the New Year Right!
You’ll leave with a personalized set of core values (written in your own words) and handouts to reference later, long after you leave the workshop. Come prepared to share your experiences, as much as you’re comfortable to share, and one decision (an event, commission, class, or purchase) to reflect upon.
