Creative Connection

Creative Connection takes place on 11 November 2026. Venue: Absent Lisbon - Offline Café & Third Space, Lisbon.

A playful and reflective creative workshop to help you feel more connected with yourself, connect with people and leave more inspired. In a world that moves quickly this screen free workshop is an invitation to pause, step away from everyday life and be creative in your own way. We'll do fun exercises in a relaxed setting and beautiful space. You don't need to be artistically inclined because there is no right or wrong way to create, the focus is on the experience. ​ What to expect ​✨ A gentle introduction and a few playful connection exercises ​💭 A moment to reflect on what you might want to release or make space for 🎨 An intuitive creative session to explore those feelings through your own artwork ​🫶 A small exchange of kindness, where participants get to connect with each other ​🌱 A closing reflection to notice how you feel compared to when you arrived The intention is to create a little space to play, express, connect and recharge. ​ Come as you are and leave with something you created that means something to you, a little more connection, and a lighter heart. 🌈 - Duration: approximately 1.5 hours - No art experience required - All materials provided - Price: 10€ per person About the host: ​Hello! My name is Wiem and as a creative artist and people-person who has lived across five different countries, I’m passionate about bringing art and human connection together. I love to create experiences to slow down, play, explore like kids again, with the consideration and awareness of who we are today.
