The Container

with Caylee Grey

The Container: Intimate Conversations on Practice, Process, and the Journal That Holds Us

We're starting a year of Get Messy with a Season of Softness.

It's a soft landing, a safe space.

It's a recommitment, filled with meaning and prescence

In this digital retreat, begin by creating a journal to help you navigate a year of Gardening. Create space for ideas, the seeds you are planting... one place to collate ideas, with freedom to explore.

Then dig into conversations with 15 different artists with different styles, practices, cultures, and journals.

These cosy converations will go live daily from 17 →25 January, so check back each day for new inspiration to pull from.
