About your Host
Hi! My name is Heather–artist, plant lover, dog mom and entrepreneur. I have been teaching creative workshops for almost 6 years now and I have loved every second of it. With over 400 events taught, you could call me a “well seasoned” host. A little bit about me– I moved to Richmond Virginia almost 9 years ago to attend college at Virginia Commonwealth University to obtain my Bachelors in Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies. I love to travel, eat spicy foods, take long walks with my dog Ryland, and watch scary movies. Since then moving to RVA (Richmond), I have co- produced 15 mobile artist showcases featuring up to 50 artists, hosted local conferences, started a business, got married, and have had the pleasure to teach thousands of folks in-person and virtually all over the world including 35 states and 7 countries. My style of event is— F-U-N! Of course, I will teach you some techniques, guide you through your project and in some cases provide aftercare instructions, but I thrive on good tunes, positive vibes, cultivating connections & spreading my love for art. I look forward to creating with you soon.

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.)
