ARTWORKS @ KWANYONI

Terri Broll and Louise Hall host artists’ workshops in Hilton.

During 2009, Terri Broll and Louise Hall will hold a series of workshops catering for the unique needs of artists. These skills-based workshops will focus on enhancing, deepening and maintaining creativity and will be of interest to both visual and performing artists as well as writers.

The venue for these workshops is KwaNyoni in Hilton outside Pietermaritzburg. Overlooking the spectacular Umgeni Valley, KwaNyoni offers a stunning setting for a day of learning, renewal and connection with other artists.

The first workshop takes place on January 31 and is titled Meeting the Challenge of Creativity. It will focus on the challenges involved in putting creativity into practice. Participants will learn to understand issues such as avoidance, anxiety and procrastination in order to achieve a working knowledge of their own relationship to creativity.

The second workshop will take place – also at KwNyoni – on March 7 and is titled Showing Up. - Learning to Sustain Artistic Production. Many artists find difficulty initiating and sustaining regular work habits. This workshop will focus on particular techniques of self-management that will enable participants to move into creative action, keep work flowing and maintain ongoing production.

Both workshops will take place at KwaNyoni from 09h00 to 16h30 and the fee of R490 includes lunch and refreshments.
