“Creativity Camp helped me grow as a person, learn about what goes on during the process of creativity, and will highly benefit me during future projects.”

Rachel B

“Creativity Camp was super fun. My favorite parts were the QuickFire Challenges and the way the team worked together to finish our project by Friday.”

Happy Camper from Creativity Camp 2014

“Collaboration generates amazing energy. Entering into the creative process together brings wonder and surprise every time.”

“I’m a writer and mostly work alone. Creativity Labs feed my relational, playful sides. And each of the labs I’ve participated in has given me a tool—sometimes just a word or image—to get me past that nasty place called Stuck.”

“Working through the challenges at Creativity Labs has paid off for me as a photographer. This experience has changed the way I look through my lens. I’m seeing light, shape, line and texture in a whole new way.”

icon-Interact
Creativity is a skill. You get better by practicing it. Together we challenge each other to be our best.
icon-Process
Creativity Camp is more about the process than the product. You will put tools in your toolbox that will carry you through your entire career.
icon-Play
If it’s not fun, you’re not doing it right. Kids are naturally creative. Stay playful and see what happens.
icon-Mental-Flexibility
The hallmark of the creative person is mental flexibility. This is where you learn it.
icon-Question
You can’t find good solutions unless you ask the right questions. Learn how to keep the conversation going and explore the possibilities.
icon-To-Do
Steve Jobs once said, “Real artists ship.” The creative life is not for pie-in-the-sky idealists, it’s for people who actually deliver.
