Creative Journal Club
Time & Location
About The Event
Weekly get together at the Moat Theatre every Tuesday from 12pm-1pm. No experience required!
The Creative Journal Club is a place to take some time out for an hour with like minded people, have a cup of tea and write or colour or doodle in a journal or copy book, whatever you have. This club will be a place for some time-out, relaxation and fun if you are free to join in any Tuesday.
A journal is a visual and verbal record of thoughts, ideas, reflections, challenges and inspirations. It is a form of creative self-care. You can write in it, scribble in it, attach images or words, draw or colour, use it as a coaster for your tea, jump on it, it can be messy, and it can be neat and organised. There is no right or wrong. You can use it exactly as you need to. You will be given ideas and prompts and how to get started on using a journal for relaxation or as a supportive tool. Those who already use a journal can share ideas as we journey together and learn from one another. Cathy has a large selection of stencils for anyone to use and these are very popular and great fun.
If you are working on your own creative project, you are most welcome to bring that along and work on it during the hour.
The Moat Theatre are kindly offering their space for free so we ask each person to buy a tea or coffee in support. Donations towards materials are kindly accepted.
Supplies to bring on the first day:
-Any sort of journal. Can be hardback or not. Can be lined or not. Can be any size. Even a copy will do to begin.
Hard backed with no lines is probably the best to start with but we can work with whatever you have.
- A pen/pencil

Different coloured pens (gel pens if you like)
A glue stick (pritt stick)
