Sam Furness

Quester in Chief at Creative Quests.

London

Founder, author, artist and Quester. On any given day you’ll find me searching for extraordinary creative ideas in ordinary places and bringing them to life in adventurous and collaborative ways. I’m founder of Channel Twelve - we design programmes that invite people to explore their creative potential. The heart of what we do is Creative Quests - a global community for people fuelled by curiosity. Since 2021 we’ve hosted twenty month-long theme explorations (Quests) alongside thousands of curious humans around the world. Each Quest a new way to explore your creativity and connect with the world around you.

By registering on this page, you’re making a commitment to release a creative project on Release Day on May 29th.

And we’re here to support you on the road to Release Day with tips, motivation, and accountability to help you bring your project to life.

After you register, check your inbox for:

What to do on Release Day:

How to make the most of FieldTrips

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.

Show up fully

Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.

Stay curious

Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going! 

Celebrate your host

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.

Support each other

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.

Not vibing?

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.)
