Creative process facilitation

Guided sessions that nurture creativity and make meaning together

As a Jewish Studio Project Facilitator, Lillie is a practitioner of the Jewish Studio Process. In the lineage of art therapy and Jewish spiritual practice, this process nurtures our inherent creativity as a place of practice and intention for individuals and organizations. This method is accessible to folks regardless of spiritual background and relationship with creative practice.

Our approach

The Jewish Studio Process is a ritually held experience that moves through the following steps:

Inquiry

Guided small group learning drawing from the Jewish practice of beit midrash (house of inquiry).
Intention

Intention setting for the art-making process, naming what you want to welcome in or setting a boundary around for your creative making. Write your intention in the present tense, as if it is already happening.
Exploration

Exploration of your creativity through any medium, such as painting, music, dance, daydreaming, etc. Follow pleasure and what feels live for you.
Reflection

A written stream-of-consciousness response to both what you’ve created and your experience of creating called witness-writing.

Healing By Design Artist Hours: ROOTS

Join local artist Lillie Benowitz with Sustain Studio for a creative journey rooted in rest, resilience, and the power of communal reflection.
At the heart of this project is a participatory art installation designed by Lillie Benowitz, inviting you to weave your own experience into a growing collective piece. Using fabric, thread, and yarn—each color tied to a different emotion or experience—you’ll reflect, choose your colors, and add them to the communal weaving. Together, these workshops and the evolving artwork create a space to metabolize what it means to be in Jewish community and in the world in this moment—holding both roots and resilience.
September 19 from 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm at the Capp Center St. Paul.
