Amsterdam Muse Date

A whimsical workshop for personal transformation, Kissing Your Muse is a playful, empowering, imperfect dance down the creative path — with scissors and glue stick in hand.

Kissing the Muse takes you on a "messy, magical creative adventure" that expands self-awareness and empowers you to make a positive impact or change. Through the guided process of making a Muse Mirror collage, you will creatively kiss one of a dozen distinct muses. Each muse reflects a different aspect of your innate creativity, wisdom and power and guides a particular phase of your journey. Similar to tarot cards but handmade by the querent, Muse Mirrors symbolically reflect the spiritual wisdom you need to navigate life’s twists and turns at that moment. You'll then receive your muse's message through a playful Kiss & Tell writing process that helps you intuitively choose your next steps and direction.

Whether it's a restorative self-care ritual to reconnect with your true self or a quick “kiss” for intuitive insight and direction, Kissing the Muse is a tangible, creative spiritual practice that can illuminate your authentic path to happiness and help you navigate along the way.

No previous art experience is necessary. All materials provided.*

* Please feel free to bring/contribute/recycle old magazines for the communal collage-making process
