Workshops
Many artists, and creative professionals offer workshops for the public to gain knowledge, and skill in a variety of areas. Some of us find immersing ourselves in arts and culture inspires us to participate and create works of our own and through the engaged teaching process we can begin to master new skills and experiences that will enable our own creative growth.
It has been said that it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert in any skill. That breaks down to 4 hours a day, 5 days a week for over eight years. Needless to say, learning something on your own to the point of mastery just isn’t realistic for most of us. The perfect alternative is to spend a concentrated amount of time with someone who is already a master!
