Creative Wellbeing Practices for Changemakers

Dan offers a Casual Alchemy Studio where you can rest, explore or make things from the boxes of curiosities he’s brought.

It’s a way to turn thoughts, ideas and feelings into objects using your native curiosity, playfulness and intuition.

The tone of this is more a "playdate", than a workshop.

It's a key difference!  It taps into a different style of learning and sharing. More egalatarian and less hierarchial. It encourages competence, not deference or dependence.

Well being and Shadow, 2023

The Casual Alchemy approach to Making is to balance the use of Head, Heart AND HAND.  These workshops are to help you get better with your Hands. Tool use. Expanding the facility with tools, techniques and materials:   Drilling, cutting, fitting, glueing, sanding, finishing items medium and small; useful and imaginal? making small chairs, stools, simple tables?   You might want to look at some of my books on Making Rustic Furniture.
