CreativeMornings/Milwaukee has officially risen!

January’s Theme is RISE.
Our global theme for January is RISE. It was chosen by our Tampa Bay chapter and illustrated by Miss Crit.
The sun must set before it can rise. So, remember, every setback can be overcome. Each new challenge compels us to tap into our reservoirs of hope and determination. To live a fulfilling life, we must not wallow. We must rise.
The phoenix rising from the ashes is such a juicy metaphor. The mystical birdâs fiery demise symbolizes the destruction of old expectations â and how itâs always been done. Every creative act is a transformation. Each new project is a rebirth.
We rise from everything that came before. Thatâs why ârise up!â is a rally cry for the oppressed. But we should all be shouting, because our personal and collective empowerment are intricately linked. The rise of different voices creates a richer and more vibrant society. The goal is not reaching the top, itâs lifting each other up.
Together, we rise higher.
