Thinking outside the Box
Saturday, March 3, 2-4 PM
Instructor: Paula Beaulieu MEd
Businesses today are looking for people who can think playfully or creatively, “out-of-the-box,” as they say. Workers need to spend unstructured time in acts of imagination in order to tap into their playful side where they can create, invent, stretch, and dream of what could be. Through this guided hands-on art workshop, participants will be lead in a series of exercises designed to help them tap into that source of innate creativity where their playful side exists so they can be more open to new ideas and possibilities as the new year unfolds. To learn more about Paula and this idea, please visit www.connectwithyourcreativity.com.

Creating the Story of Us
Saturday, March 10, 11 AM – 2 PM
Child-Adult class
Instructor: Dana DiNatale
Creating the Story of Us is a workshop inspired by the new magazine Create With Me, which shares projects that parents/caregivers make with their children. Together, you will create a 3D mixed media artwork/sculpture telling the story of you, a representation of your life, history and family. A family tree of sorts that is open to interpretation. Using different materials such as collage, paint, recyclables, embellishments and the like artists will explore techniques and the art process while experiencing working together. Please feel free to bring in photographs and/or found objects to include in the project.

Finances for Creative People
Saturday, May 5, 10AM-12PM
Instructor: Kim Feeney Zollo, CFP, AIF | Maloy Financial Services
This workshop demystifies financial planning and shows you that achieving financial success is not a magic trick but rather a process and a discipline. Come and learn the foundation for financial wellness and get started on your way to pursuing your financial goals. We’ll discuss managing debt, why you need an emergency fund, setting goals, the differences between saving and investing, and the many ways to save for your retirement.

A healthy relationship to money and self leads to taking the right actions to achieve the financial success and wellness you desire.
