Craft Workshops Toronto

The Toronto Artist's Way Meetup Monthly Meetup

The purpose of the group, based on the book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, is for people to meet and talk about their artistic challenges in any field (painting, writing, music etc.) and encourage each other to break their creative blocks and fulfill themselves in their art. If you find people who are sympathetic, you may want to form your own group, meeting regularly to explore the book and supporting each other in their artistic journeys. I have gone through 2 such clusters and can say that it is a very powerful experience. Why not come to a meeting and see for yourself?

What do you actually want?

Most of us have spent so long navigating expectations and old stories that our own desires have become hard to locate. This workshop creates space to clear the noise and reconnect with what you actually want. **What you'll leave with:** \- Clarity on the difference between what you want and what you've been conditioned to want \- A way to recognize the inner stories and voices keeping certain desires out of reach \- Permission to name something you've been afraid to say out loud \- A grounded next step toward one thing that feels genuinely yours **Led by:** Weiwei Su, is a facilitator who helps people make sense of the inner tensions that surface when things feel stuck, uncertain, or in transition. Her work invites people to listen more deeply to themselves and others, so they can move forward with greater clarity, compassion, and trust.

How to Say No

Saying no well is one of the most underrated skills in a full life. This workshop explores why no feels so hard, what it protects when used well, and how to set boundaries that come from clarity rather than guilt or resentment. **What you'll leave with:** \- A clearer understanding of why no feels so threatening \- Language and practice for boundaries that don't require over\-explaining \- Relief from the guilt that usually follows a no \- A felt sense of your own limits\, and why they matter **Led by: Lindsay Prajza** Lindsay is a psychotherapist that supports clients in navigating doubt, fear, and the pressures of modern life with clarity and compassion. Blending relational psychotherapy, evidence-based strategies, and a neuroscience-informed lens, she helps people build confidence, resilience, and deep self-trust so they can feel more connected to who they’re becoming.

Learn to Crochet (intro)

Hello Everyone and welcome to my group. The first event is for those who wish to learn to crochet. If you don't know what it is, well it's working with yarn like knitting but instead of two needles you use a hook. It's a fabulous and therapeutic activity that will enrich your life.And it's one of the possibly healthier addictions. Yarn and Hook provided.

Grow Your Art Career • Conversation with KEVPOP

You know how to make things. Maybe you've always known. Maybe you figured it out over years of practice, failure, and starting over. Either way — the making part? You've got that. But there's another part. The part that happens after the work is finished. How it finds an audience. How it finds a home. How you keep going long enough to make the next thing and the thing after that. Nobody really teaches that part. I'm KEVPOP. I've taught community education courses and workshops at public and private universities. I've received thousands in grant funding. I've shown work around the country. I've spoken globally from the US to Indonesia. And the thing I kept hearing from artists everywhere, at every stage, in every room? *Nobody told me how any of this actually worked.* So let's talk about it. This is a free, candid conversation for working artists, emerging artists, and anyone who makes things and wonders what a sustainable creative life actually looks like — not in theory, but in practice, right now, in the real world. **We'll cover:** 🎨 How artists are building lasting careers right now — the paths, the models, and the ones most people overlook 📋 Grants, open calls, and residencies — where they live, how to find them, and why most artists never apply even when they qualify 👥 What artist communities actually offer — peer support, accountability, access, and whether the paid ones are worth it 🌍 Public art activations — how showing up in the world builds an audience over time 💬 Your questions — bring them. This is a conversation, not a lecture. I've been in those rooms and I'll tell you what I actually know. **This event is free and open to all 10,000+ members**. It's also the first glimpse of something larger we're building. More on that at the event. Come curious. Come with questions. Come ready to talk about the part nobody talks about. **Reserve your spot today.** *KEVPOP • 10,000+ artists, collectors, and art lovers across North America.*
