We wish all of you that celebrate a very Merry Christmas.
Although our celebrations might look different this year, hopefully they will still be filled with joy and meaning...and maybe a new tradition or two will be created.
If you are looking for joy and meaning beyond Christmas, we hope you'll consider participating in one or more of WORK_SPACE's upcoming creativity programs. Scroll down to see details about our:
-
Online Painting Workshops (the 1st one is on Tuesday, Dec. 29th),
-
A Community Conversation with some of the artists exhibited in our current PERSPECTIVES OF A PANDEMIC art show (Tues. Jan. 12th) and our next
-
TEDtalk Tuesday which veers from our practice of watching a video because we have the good fortune to have educator, advocate and artist Stacey Queen deliver her presentation on Transformative Art live on Zoom (Jan. 19).
-
A 3-part Writing Course for any and all people interested in storytelling (Feb. 9, 16 & 23),
For those in need of a place to work that isn't your living room couch or kitchen table, WORK_SPACE can maximize your productivity while keeping you safe. Call us for a tour (860-647-6029) and to discuss our daily and monthly membership options. We are closed for the holiday weekend, and will reopen on Monday, Jan. 28th.
Be warm, be well, and be kind.
Sincerely,
Stacey Zackin, WORK_SPACE Manager
