Ready to reignite your creativity? Join award-winning author Gabrielle Tozer for an immersive workshop that’s like a creative retreat without packing a suitcase.

Your Creative Reset is for aspiring, emerging and professional creatives of all disciplines aged 18+ who are ready to level up their artistic practice. 

 This isn’t your typical how-to workshop. 

 We’ll get to the heart of what makes you tick creatively and build a personalised toolkit that suits your season of life, whatever that may be.

Think strategies for taming your inner critic, development of deeper insights into your process, navigating burnout, habit formation to conquer procrastination and simple tips to infuse creative magic into every day.

Gabrielle delivers all this with an approach that is equal parts inspiring and supportive, making it the perfect space to grow artistically while connecting with fellow creatives.

This workshop is a part of the Eastern Riverina Arts Creative Industries Bootcamp.

Creatives in regional and rural Australia often juggle a rich mix of roles, from artist to administrator, teacher to technician, maker to mentor. This panel celebrates the diverse ways creatives show up for their communities, sustain their practices, and stay adaptable in a shifting industry landscape.

We'll explore how “multi-hat” work drives innovation, builds networks, and reveals unexpected career pathways, all while navigating burnout, boundaries, and the business side of art.

Panel Lineup Coming Soon
