Hoffman Estates Branch

Meeting Room

Join us for an opportunity to explore the personal and professional challenges that arise in the life of an artist. Whether full-time or hobbyist, artists experience universal hills and valleys of the creative process, dealing with the pressure of comparison, rejection, life balance and self-promotion, to name a few. Katrina Syrris is back to lead us in a group discussion on pursuing your passions. As displayed in this year's One Book, One Community read, The Violin Conspiracy, the pursuit of one's passions can be wrought with many obstacles. The workshop focuses on discussing these and more as we navigate the importance of pursuing your artistic passions.

About Katrina Syrris: Katrina brings over 20 years of experience in the theatre to the table to create workshops that apply not only to performance but also to life. Katrina has been an actor, director, producer, playwright, and even standup. She has taught drama to students of all ages, and coaches adult performers through acting lessons through her theatre company Goodly Creatures.
