An online course (both live and self-guided) using map-making to shape your creative strategy for 2026.
This is an online course, with live and self-guided elements to help you plan for and achieve your goals in 2026, using map-making and creativity to shape your strategy.
You will be guided through a series of activities as the cartographer of your life/business/practice, setting realistic goals to achieve by the end of the year, and mapping the path to get there, anticipating obstacles and creatively problem-solving as we go.
Who is this course for?
> Creatives who are bored by most planning processes
> But who are looking to plan ahead and make the most of 2026
> It is perfect for you if you are an artist, freelance or run a small creative business, where strategy can too easily fall to the bottom of the list
> It is also a great fit if you have a particular project, goal or dream that you have been procrastinating on for too long. 2026 is the time!
> Anyone who loves maps
