IN PERSON: This discussion-focused course explores two bold ideas. First, we'll consider how creativity is essential to personal and societal well-being, especially as we face an uncertain future. Research links creative engagement with longer, more fulfilling lives. Participants will develop habits that deepen their creative instincts and increase their ability to adapt and innovate. Second, we’ll explore how creativity can bridge divides in our deeply polarized nation. Participants will uncover shared values that transcend political, geographic and generational lines, using creativity to shape more unifying language and perspectives. Together, we’ll craft action-based, optimistic messages aimed at inspiring a hopeful vision for the future. We will collaborate on how to share this message with the broader community. Participants will be invited to imagine themselves as missionaries for this message: The best way to prepare for an unknowable future is to be your most creative self. | Facilitated discussion.
