Meet the Collective: Sussex Garden School

Creativity Found: finding creativity later in life

Crafting inspired by nature and gardens
The creative workshops offered at Sussex Garden School range from garden design to pressing flowers, fused glass art, natural dyeing and rag weaving, all in a supportive and encouraging environment where adults can explore their creativity and unlock a sense of wonder and playfulness often lost in adulthood.
In this chat, Creativity Found Collective member Juliet Sargeant highlights the significance of fostering an atmosphere of encouragement and relaxation in the school's workshops. By providing a safe space for adults to experiment, make mistakes, and learn without fear of judgement, individuals can step out of their comfort zones and embrace the unknown, leading to personal growth and creative fulfilment.
Juliet also discusses how she values being a member of the Creativity Found Collective both for personal encouragement and practical business support. She understands that having a network of individuals with similar business experiences allows for the sharing of knowledge, advice, and resources. This exchange of information can be invaluable for small business owners looking to grow and thrive in their ventures. By being part of a community, individuals can learn from each other's successes and failures, gaining insights that can help them make informed decisions and avoid common pitfalls.
