Very often we might have some inspiring moment that spurs great creative output; more often, we don’t.
And still, the work — the presentation, manuscript, song lyric, creative project — has to get done.
One tool that can help with putting aside perfectionism, increasing creative output, quieting our pesky inner critic is engaging in some deceptively simple, highly accessible applied improvisation exercises (read: games for adults) in a supportive, playful group.
Using applied improvisation, we will address elements of storytelling (generating ideas, storylines, and structure) through exercises that will turn you into a creative powerhouse, brimming with ideas.
This workshop is experiential.
We will do some improv exercises together and you will write solo.
No improv experience necessary. All genres of writers and creatives are welcome.

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
