Free Creativity, Community Care & Clinical Practice Workshop
In clinical settings, creativity isn’t just about art—it’s about presence, perspective, and problem-solving. When healthcare workers engage their creative minds, they cultivate the ability to listen more deeply, respond more flexibly, and connect more authentically with patients.
Creativity helps us move beyond checklists and protocols to see the full humanity of the people we serve. It allows us to navigate uncertainty, approach challenges with compassion, and imagine new ways of caring—even when systems fall short.
When practiced in community, creativity becomes a form of resilience. It supports clinician wellbeing, prevents burnout, and brings us back to the heart of why we entered this work in the first place.
Whether through writing, storytelling, movement, or reflection, creative practice can remind us:
✨ We are not just providers—we are people, too.
💛 Come see what’s possible. Join us.
Join us for a free virtual gathering on October 6th at 12 PM to explore how creativity in community can support our wellbeing as clinicians and improve patient care!
In this free, one-hour virtual gathering, we will explore how creativity—rooted in community—can nourish clinician wellbeing and enhance patient care.
In a time when so many healthcare workers are stretched thin, this space offers reflection, inspiration, and connection. Together, we’ll engage in simple creative practices that support emotional resilience, cultivate presence, and remind us of the deeper “why” in our work. Creativity is not a replacement for systems change, but it is a skillset that helps us work towards a healthcare systems (and world) rooted in care, love, and justice.
This gathering is open to all healthcare workers, students, and clinicians across disciplines. No artistic experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to show up.
