CREATIVE SCHOOL FOR INTEGRATION
COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS
Creative Supplies.
Each participant is responsible for their own creative and artistic supplies. A list of recommended supplies is provided on our Creative School for Integration membership site.
Tech, Supplies, & Language.
Each participant will need internet access, phone or laptop and a working knowledge of the English language in order to participate.
Arrive open.
We arrive at our gatherings open to each other and to experience. The power is in seeing and hearing ourselves and each other with full presence.
Culture of care.
We are respectful of perspectives and lifestyles that may not reflect our own. We maintain each other’s confidentiality and encourage one another to learn and grow. Intentionally harming or disrespecting those in the communal space will result in expulsion from Creative School for Integration without refund.
Voice:
For this work, it is key that EACH participant speaks on their own behalf and ONLY from their own experience. We do NOT critique or interpret each other's work. We do share where the work takes us or how it makes us feel.
Share the air.
The facilitators will let the group know when the circle is open for individual shares, as well as how much time is available for each share so we can be respectful of everyone’s time.
Attendance.
We ask that you arrive and settle into the Zoom space 5 minutes prior to a session's start time and stay till the end of the session out of respect to the communal vessel. This commitment is important for your own experience as well as for the sacred container of the participating members. (Staying for a share circle after a session is complete is optional.)
Self-Responsibility.
I agree NOT to hold the Creative School for Integration or its facilitators responsible for any damages, harm or problems that might occur in relation to my participation in the Creative Spark, Creative Wisdom, As Is and/or Approaches sessions on Zoom or in-person. I understand the Creative Guides are NOT medical doctors NOR trained psychotherapists. I hereby knowingly and voluntarily assume the full risks of any physical or other injury, damage, or losses, either to myself or caused to others by me. I hereby waive the liability of, and agree to hold harmless, the organizers and facilitators of the Creative School for Integration as well as other staff and participants. I release the facilitators and organizers from any responsibility for mental or physical damage to my person. I am fully responsible for the results of my participation before, during and after the creative practices including but not limited to: breathing & meditation; mark-making; writing; collaging; and/or all potential forms of creativity.
Recordings & Library.
I understand Creative School for Integration records Zoom sessions to share with its participating community.
