OUTDOOR CREATIVITY WORKSHOP
Painted Earrings & Intentions

In this workshop, we’ll participate in a hands-on art project while enjoying time outside!

When: Saturday, July 18, 2026
10 a.m.-12 p.m.
Where: Grant Park
Cost: $35 includes all supplies.
Bring: Water, a snack, a hat, sunscreen, handheld fan

Meet me at Grant Park! We’ll paint 3 pairs of wooden earrings. I like to incorporate a walk/hike into my outdoor workshops, but we won’t include that this time. It’s July and we’re in Georgia! Instead of movement, we’ll spend some time brainstorming and setting intentions for the second half of 2026. This is a great opportunity to slow down and enjoy time with other creatives.

Once you register, I will send you a link for payment. Your spot in the class will be official after you pay. Once I receive payment I’ll send specific details about where to meet up.

During our time together we will:

  • Create

  • Set intentions for the second half of the year

Who should take this workshop?

People who…

  • need a creative boost to get back into art-making.

  • need a creative boost to start a new creativity practice. 

  • want to meet other creative people in Atlanta.

  • want to get outside more and need a little push.

  • love being outside.

This will be a small workshop with 6 or fewer participants.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

I’ll bring several different shapes and sizes of wooden earrings. We will paint and then assemble them. Additionally, I’ll bring supplies for setting intentions for the second part of 2026. A little reset!

I’m at my happiest when I’m creating. I may or may not like the outcome, but the time I spend using my hands and heart and creativity are the moments that have the biggest impact on my day-to-day well-being. The emphasis of this workshop will be play, experimenting, and having fun!

Make time for yourself! Have fun! Make new friends!

I didn’t even know how much I needed the creative recharge I got from Christy’s workshop. I do a pretty good job of making time for my creative practice every day, so I thought I was set, but Christy brought so many new ideas and encouragement to the table (along with fun new art supplies). I would definitely recommend her workshops to any one looking for a creative boost.

Christy’s outdoor creativity workshop is such a delight! I so rarely get a chance to slow down, connect with nature, and tap into the playful side of creativity. This class was the perfect reminder to take time to nurture that side of myself, and she gave us helpful tools and prompts to do that!

Meet Christy

Hi! I’ve taught hands-on creativity, art, and craft classes, workshops, and camps all over Atlanta. I was a Teaching Artist at the High Museum of Art for 10+ years, and I’ve also taught hands-on creativity workshops, activities, and camps at MODA (Museum of Design Atlanta), Clubhouse Kid & Craft, Atlanta Public Schools, Alliance Theatre, Atlanta Symphony, Purpose Possible, Little Art School, Art on the Beltline, Paradise Garden, Agnes Scott College, the Atlanta Botanical Garden, and more! 

Additionally, I’ve hosted my own workshops and retreats through the Indie Craft Experience, which I co-founded in 2005 and co-owned until 2023. I’ve been an artist/crafter/maker since I was old enough to pick up a pencil and use scissors (so something like 45-ish years!).

I love sharing ideas and techniques with others, and I believe workshops are a great way to re-charge your creativity. I’m my absolute happiest when I’m making and creating. I hope to pass this joy and happiness along to others.

I look forward to making art with you!

-Christy
