In this series focusing on our Guiding Principles, today we share a video of collaborative art-making.
We believe in collaborative and community art making as a path to building relationships, community wellness, and social change and planetary healing.
What happens when we make art together? This is such a powerful question! Whether you are making art with your child, your partner, your family, your work team, or your community, you are joining together in service of bringing something new into form, together.
When we communicate through the arts, we can see and feel the experience and truth of the other, leading to empathy, tolerance, and authenticity. The arts can serve community building by helping people to discover shared values, purpose, and feelings of belonging that transcend individual differences. The arts offer process and language that bridge differences of personality, history and
culture. Creative Wisdom Online Training, Lesson Seven
The 3 of us - Tamara, Victoria, Kathleen - paint collaboratively as part of our ongoing business development at Expressive Arts Florida Institute. We paint to make space for new visioning possibilities, to improve our listening and communication, and to keep ourselves fully grounded in the work we believe in so deeply.
We hope you enjoy this video of us painting together, to explore the question "What's Next?"
The painting process always leads to rich discussion!
I enjoy my association with the Expressive Arts Florida Institute. They have a great balance of professionalism and warmth. I’ve known their work for years and find them to be consistently creative, clear and knowledgeable.
