Chyme has worked in the music industry for 16 years and has collaborated as a youth educator for the program “Be Nice.” Over the course of this three week workshop, children and adults will explore the tools and exercises necessary to spark creativity. Doing so through, meditation, free writing, cut ups and group collaboration. This free workshop will be available to anyone over nine and also includes a ticket to the Pickford Film center and the Spark Museum. RSVP for Writers Toolbox through makeshiftproject.com
