Let's have a PURE Workshop in your area
Art is for everyone
For the vast majority of human history everyone was a creator. It was part of everyday life. As we became more 'civilized' our roles became more rote and there grew a divide between artists and non-artists. We seek to reduce, or remove, that divide.
Personal growth
Our mission is to share our love for creation with as many people as possible. We encourage personal growth in our members and our community. Only through self-awareness and exploration can we gain a closer understanding of who we are. And only when we know who we are can we best help others.
Host a workshop
We love teaching and we love meeting new people. We offer a number of unique workshops that are designed to offer technique with an emphasis on group communication. Collaboration is a key element in PURE workshops along with themes of self-acceptance and resolving creative disputes.
Workshops are fun and deeply informative. A great experience for an existing community, or troupe, or as an ice-breaker to bring together members of different communities.
If you have an idea for a workshop but don't see it here let us know what you have in mind. Contact us, something can certainly be developed. Listed to the right are some of our more popular workshops. Click here to view the full list.
