In May 2023 I plan to run a week-long wellbeing challenge for Creativity & Wellbeing Week (15-21 May). I am also planning an online event for Mental Health Awareness Week. In June I will run a month-long art challenge.
Through the month of February 2023 I ran an online Set Aside Daily Art For wellbeing Challenge, with 44 participants. The idea was to “set aside” time for art, so every day I sent participants a different art idea : each idea could be completed in around 15 minutes, although you could take as long as you wanted! Some ideas were figurative, some were abstract, some expressed thoughts and feelings. It was wonderful to see the Challenge come to life as people shared artwork and experiences in the Facebook group, interpreting the ideas in such imaginative and creative ways. Here you can see examples shared by some participants:
