Registration Required Below Realize and enhance your creativity by joining the Creative Collective Discussion Group via Zoom. In this 8-week summer session, group discussions will begin with a focus on John Berger’s groundbreaking work “Ways of Seeing”. Berger’s insightful critique of visual culture will serve as the basis for exploring the layers of meaning behind images, and their impact on our understanding of the world. We’ll continue with more curated videos exploring perception and art. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply curious about how we interpret visual information join us for engaging conversations that challenge, perspectives and ignite curiosity. The summer session will meet every Tuesday from July 9 through August 27. We welcome new members interested in exploring the creative process. Facilitation of the group is shared by current group members. Click Here to attend Zoom Meeting (For registered participants only) Meeting ID: 873 5848 4051 Password:Creative

“There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy, and a tragedy.”

Experience a thrilling stage adventure by tossing out scripted lines and leaning into your instincts — that's the magic of Improv! Improv is a performance technique where the actors create scenes based on loose scenarios and everything is made up on the spot. Shows like Who's Line is it Anyway? and Curb Your Enthusiasm rely on this technique as a way to heighten spontaneity and creativity. Often, some of the most memorable acting moments are created through improvisation. During this workshop, get tips and tricks from an experienced actor, and then try out some basic acting drills using improvisation. Willing participants can even try out the techniques during scenario prompts! This workshop is for anyone who wants to sharpen their acting abilities or public speaking skills. No previous experience required. About Our InstructorEileen O’Brien is a retired award-winning drama teacher and director from New Haven.
