The Artist’s Way in Tucson
Yes, these are truly crazy, unsettling times, but one of the best things we can do is stay connected to others for support and community. There’s no better way than to join a group like The Artist’s Way!
I’ve been offering these transformational classes since 2007–with nearly 600 participants to date– and I can tell you that The Artist’s Way is your ticket to self-discovery, reconnecting with your natural creativity, and claiming your right to live authentically. I always tell people that I’m not the magic, I’m just the midwife. The magic is in you, and you’ll find it in this class!

Using Julia Cameron’s groundbreaking book, The Artist’s Way, as a basic text and expressive arts activities such as image-making, writing, movement, visualization and role play, you’ll open to your creative, intuitive side in this safe, supportive group. The activities are fun and insightful and are designed to help you gain self-knowledge, increase your confidence, overcome blocks, and transform your relationship with your inner critic. This class is perfect for people in a transition—and who isn’t these days?
No artistic or writing ability is required, just an open mind and a commitment to connecting with your creative self.
The class will help you:
- Overcome procrastination
- Tame your inner critic
- Connect to your intuition
- Make new friends
- Have fun!
Have you read or taken a class on The Artist’s Way before? This will be very different because of the expressive arts activities and the format of the class! Join us and see!
“This class has been an eye-opening experience. I love how safe the class feels and how much I’ve learned about myself. The feeling of connection within the group is amazing. I loved all of the activities we did and learned something about myself in all of them.” Kym Roessel, San Diego
“Judith, you are a great facilitator, a great listener, and a great resource. This is clearly your passion, and it’s contagious. You made it appear so effortless, but I know you consciously and carefully created the ‘safety net’ that allowed the magic to happen.” Cheryl Coffman, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA
Many of my participants tell me this is the best class they’ve ever taken—in fact many people have taken it more than once! More testimonials from past participants…
