Open City experiences is a haven for all those seeking to expand their well-being through creativity
Creativity is the portal to elevating your consciousness and living a vibrant life
Open City Experiences offers innovative, heart-opening experiences to help inspire and grow the well-being of creatives.
Open City experiences is driven by elevating consciousness. When we do this on an individual level, like a ripple effect, this expands positive awareness and healing out to our loved ones, network, local community… and beyond. We focus on our creativity, helping people to unblock their artistic selves and share their message with the world.
Whether you are a blocked creative looking to get back to your practice, or a thriving artist who craves brainstorming and connection – or maybe you’re not sure where you are, but know something needs to change – we are here to guide you on your artistic journey to self.
