Participants will walk away with:

- a wax-sealed envelope and letter
- meaningful connection exercises
- a shared experience
- snacks

  • "What a joy to be guided by Tikva in a creative practice of trusting the unknown and experimenting with art-making from a place of play. Tikva energizes a room with her attitude of openness and acceptance and supports discovery through her gentle invitation to allow imagination to flow freely. " - Natalie C.

    "Tikva, In everything you present and even the words that come out of your mouth there is an intensely playful creativity that I find to be absolutely delightful! I still have the "Spilled Tea" exercise in my Trapper Keeper and it reminds me to keep play and serendipity a part of my own creative practice. Thank you for the beautiful reminder that what we are looking for can come to us in many lovely forms!" - Torin K.
