The Weekly Challenge - 64 Million Artists

CREATIVE CHALLENGES

What are creative challenges?

These creative prompts are great to do individually and in a community or workplace setting. They can take as much time as you like and can be completed in two minutes for larger teams or shorter meetings.

You can invite members to share with the group if they wish, which creates richer, more connected beginnings to meetings or events.

If you give it a go, why not tag us on social and inspire our community?

Another Dimension

"I love this challenge because it's a fantastic way to get a window into the highly specific things that can make each human being go weak at the knees, for whatever reason. It's a celebration of the power of tiny things to ignite our minds and souls.” - William Warrener, Head of Academic Programmes at 64 Million Artists

Penpal Postcard

“For this week's creative challenge, I would like you to give yourself a gift from the future (or is it the past?!). With the amount of energy we devote to juggling our everyday lists of responsibilities, plus the time we spend worrying about whether we're getting closer to our goals and ambitions, we could all do with a penpal helping us to stay grounded and cheering us on. But what if that penpal was...you?”

The Adventures Of...

“This week's challenge is inspired by my cat, Luna, who decided to go off an adventure for 3 weeks before magically returning to us. I imagined him having a fun adventure like the movie 'Baby's Day Out' and decided to create a short story around it.”

12 Minutes

"I'm so excited to share the 12-minute method with you today because it has changed everything for me. Doing it every week for the last six and a half years has helped me grow into a confident writer, creator and sharer of my work... which isn't how I was in 2016 when I started using it." - Robbie Swale

A Story Worth Telling

“It is important to preserve intergenerational stories.

The rich history of someone's life must be preserved in some way, whether it is a poem, a short story or simply filming them (with their consent). We all have a story worth telling.”

- Rianna Patterson
