About this event

Join this exciting online workshop series, exploring the Artist's Way with a trauma-informed perspective. Over 13 weeks, we will delve into the creative process, uncovering barriers that hinder artistic expression. The group will run weekly on Monday evenings 7:00-8:00pm New York Eastern Standard Time, from May 5th to August 4th (skipping June 23rd), facilitated by Rye Webber, MMT, MT-BC.

This online series offers a safe space to share your struggles, brainstorm ideas, and receive valuable feedback. As a creative coach and music psychotherapist, Rye deeply understands the frustrations and inner-roadblocks that can hinder creativity. In this group, they will offer support to help you find solutions and motivate your Inner Artist Self. Whether you're a writer, musician, dancer, visual artist, comedian, filmmaker, performer, or a person wanting to explore their own connection to creativity, this group is here to help you connect with fellow artists facing creative challenges, as well as provide support and inspiration.

Using Julia Cameron's "The Artist's Way" as the series guide from a trauma-informed and critical lens, we will use the book's framework for our prompts and reflections while exploring the ways in which the book is problematic, offensive, and at times - oppressive. We'll explore various techniques, exercises, and mindset shifts to help reignite your artistic spark and address what may not be serving you creatively, while acknowleging the issues of the book and its limited perspective.

Don't let artist block hold you back - and don't feel like you have to do it alone. Join this supportive group and connect deeper with your creativity and the art of creative living. Register now to reserve your spot! Only 12 spots available.

*It is important to note that although I am a board certified music therapist and hold a master's degree in this field, these workshop classes are not therapy. While my work is informed by my psychotherapy background, I do not provide therapy or treat diagnoses in this workshop.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an "artist" or have creative experience to join this group?

No! Even if you don't consider yourself an "artist," or you don't know what your creative medium is, this workshop will support you in finding it. We will gently discover new facets of our creative selves and artist identity along the way. No creative experience required.

Do I need a copy of "The Artist's Way" for this workshop?

Rye will teach the important elements of the book from a critical perspective, so it is not necessary to read the book if this feels best for you. If you plan on reading, you can buy a used copy on thriftbooks.com. You will also need a notebook that excites you & a pen that you enjoy writing with.
