You know those New Year’s resolutions that sound great… and quietly vanish by February? Same. Imperfect Beginnings Workshop is a relaxed, playful, and potentially life-changing afternoon for humans of all kinds: artists, non-artists, thinkers, feelers, planners, procrastinators. Life talk, art without rules, and lunch. No experience required. No talent needed. No pressure to share. Absolutely no pop quizzes. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗲’𝗹𝗹 𝗗𝗼 Hour 1: Life Stuff (Surprisingly Not Scary) Led by Blanca Lucia Bergman, Founder of Mental Wellness for Artists (MWA) Learn The Bergman Framework and create a PVVMG (Purpose, Values, Vision, Mission, Goals) diagram. Pens will be involved. Feelings may occur. Hour 2: Make Art, No Apologies Led by Mikie Krisztal, Founder of The School of Imperfection Use your diagram, a provided inspiration image, or pure imagination to create art. There are no wrong moves. If it’s weird, it’s working. Bonus Round (2:00–2:30 PM): Show & Tell-ish Share if you want, listen if you don’t, connect either way. Participation is optional.
