Creative Habits

Whether one wants to finish a memoir, perform poetry, write songs, get art in a gallery, finish a painting, photograph portraits, or do a daily junk journal page, creativity requires practice, discipline, and focus. That may not sound very fun. But it can be! 

In this course, we will develop personal creative rituals to get into the flow consistently. We will also practice aesthetic vision to start recognizing the magic and beauty of everyday life. Over eight weeks, participants will design, develop, and refine a creative project. Participants will have creative accountability, give and receive feedback in a workshop setting, and have the opportunity to participate in a final showcase.

​ABOUT THE INSTRUCTORS

HANNAH FAZIO
Hannah Fazio has spent time as an ice cream scooper, file sorter, yoga instructor, nightclub performer, cocktail waitress, second grade teacher, intimacy choreographer, and creative arts therapist. By some act of theatre magic, Meryl Streep attended the first production of Hannah’s play Miss Woman Pageant and said she “Love loved it” because it “was just so true.” Hannah holds a doctorate in theatre and performance research and is working on two books.
AMANDA WANDER
Amanda Wander earned her BA in Studio Art from Florida State University in 2008. She served as Education Director at LeMoyne from 2004 to 2006 and has exhibited her mixed media collages and assemblages at venues such as LeMoyne and the Gadsden Arts Center. With a diverse skill set spanning photography, printmaking, leatherworking, bookbinding, foundry techniques, and graphic design, she has also taught workshops at LeMoyne and the Thomasville Center for the Arts.

​Wander's artistic philosophy embraces the idea that "more is better"—a belief she applies through the process of "gilding the lily," continually adding layers and complexity to her work. Her recent creations include artist books and small-scale mixed media collages, reflecting her ongoing exploration of texture, materiality, and narrative.
