The creative inventory meeting is a time for digging deep and finding answers that will help us understand our creative development through a selection of questions and topics related to the theme of the season. The circle selects questions and then engages in discussions from the list.
Within each of us lives an intrinsic reading shelf where our emotional and intellectual responses to all the things we have ever read are stored and assimilated. This vast library has molded and shaped our paths and surprises us with new thoughts and ideas to pursue our passions. The spring creative inventory questions will have you recalling the influences of your personal reading shelf and lead you to new insights and visions for living your creativity.
