Think Creativity Workshop 

Do you consider yourself to be creative? Your answer to this question might depend on how you view your abilities or how you define creativity. If you think of yourself as a non-creative person, we hope your opinion will change by the end of this workshop.

 

In this workshop, we will dispel the myths of creativity and discover the creativity in you through an interactive learning experience featuring hands-on activities.
