Client Testimonial

“I was gifted two tickets to 'Poetry In The Park' for my Birthday. I had no idea of what to expect and was pleasantly surprised, as was my husband who joined me. We both really enjoyed the workshop exercises, which are aimed at sparking creativity using items in the environment around us. We'd had a very busy week and being able to enjoy this workshop outside in High Park was such a treat...a great way to decompress. Lisa is lovely, very encouraging, and supportive.”
