On three separate occasions during the ILLUME course, you will have the opportunity to share your work in progress and request feedback. Creativity Shares serve as an external deadline for you to keep your project moving forward. They happen on designated dates, and you will have the opportunity to sign up in advance for a date that works for you. We will share much more information about them in class, but the big thing to know is that we want to see your WORK IN PROGRESS. We want you to work the muscle of sharing your work while you’re in the messy middle, when feedback may be helpful. NO ONE creates perfect work out of the gate, so let’s embrace the steps along the way.

• For our Creativity Shares, we adhere to a very specific, artist-centered rigorous but kind FEEDBACK PROCESS. Everyone will adhere to this expectation as a way to support each other and meet each artist where they are.
• Our ILLUME sessions are held together by the human glue that is our Team Captain, Kevin Winebold. Kevin will be the captain of this ship - if you need technical support, you may DM him during class, if you have questions, and you may email him at [email protected] at any time. 
• It is not uncommon for creatives to participate in the ILLUME course more than once - making things of quality takes time! Know that you are joining some Sparklers who are versed in the Spark File world. Trust that they are all kind, generous creatives who are so happy to hold the lantern up for you and light the way if you need it!
