Career Out of Joy Workshop: Creating About Pleasure After Pain

December 5, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Career Out of Joy Workshop: Creating About Pleasure After Pain – Creatives centering, pleasure in eco-systems focussed on our struggle.

Join us for an inspiring in-person event at The Riverfront, Kingsway, Newport, UK, and online via Zoom. Everyone who signs up will get a recording.

This workshop is all about finding joy in your career after going through difficult times.

We’ll consider working as artists and creatives and ask:

  • Where is the appetite for our stories? How do we discern what’s ours to share and ours to protect?
  • What can we draw on to begin writing about joy in a world that dismisses our pleasure?
  • How can we centre our joy when we’re only asked about our pain?
  • How can we write both pain and joy in a trauma-informed way?

Discover how to work as an artist and centre joy, even in the midst of these troubled times.

Everyone who signs up will get access to a recording after the event.
