• Your Organized Studio: Take Creativity to the Next Level (Meetup)

    Online

    The studio where an artist or crafter works can be the birthplace of genius…or the place where great ideas go to die. The difference is sometimes just a matter of organization—being able to see, find, and use the beautiful materials that inspire and feed your creativity. For the next meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup Group, we’ll talk about how to know when your studio has stopped supporting your work. We’ll suggest a few ideas to reset your creative space and refresh your creative soul.
