LET IT OUT. CREATE in a SAFE environment.

what’s stopping me?
why am I so disengaged?
when will I see what I can do? will I ever find my voice?
when I find my voice, how can I make sure I don’t LOSE IT?
what does God have to do with any of this?

no matter who you are, or where your interest level is around creativity LET IT OUT will help you see where you are on the journey and where you can go.

ANGIE and TODD from AGENTS OF FUTURE will share their findings from practicing “safe creation” in community for over 15 years. their playful methods will keep the ideas flowing and take the mystery out of the creative process, and then put it back in again later.

if you can, bring magazine, scissors and an appetizer to share. escobars is at 15930 west 72nd avenue arvada 80007. rsvp kathy@therefugeonline.org. all are welcome, kids too!

sometimes people ask us “how can i be part of what the refuge is doing?” while we always love any prayers & encouragement we can get, one really tangible way you can help extend our culture of generosity is to donate money that we can use to continue to creatively meet the needs that come across our path through our network of relationships with single moms, dads & struggling families. we are now on paypal to make online donations easier. thanks for believing in us. it means more than you know.
