Have you ever wondered where creative inspiration comes from? Do you want to expand your creativity through an art practice or business or by simply living more artfully through cooking and curating your home? Have you heard of the ancient muses in Greek mythology?

Join us for a workshop to learn about the 9 ancient Greek muses and how you can channel the muse archetype and your inner muse for greater creativity. Firstly, Yia Mas founder Kristina will teach you about the mythology of the muses, their role in art ranging from Homer to The Grateful Dead, journaling, and a meditative journey/invocation to the muse. Then, Christina Angelos (Chicago-based artist and educator) will help us put it to practice! She’ll guide you through an art practice, including watercolor painting, and her tips and tools for intuitively accessing your creativity.

When: Sunday, February 4, 11 AM - 1:30 PM

Where: Altar, Chicago

Note: NO art experience is required for this. This is a safe space to meet yourself exactly where you are with any creative practices. All you need to bring is an open mind and curiosity. This workshop will be a mix of education and practice, designed to leave you feeling inspired and ready to create something.
