How does it work?
The Stretch of the Imagination Art Club is a Brooklyn‑based creative project that treats imagination like a muscle! We design free monthly Artwork Out sessions featuring a variety of fun art exercises inspired by the magic of New York City’s arts and culture. 

1. Try a Creative Workout

Our Artwork Outs start as blank templates to help warm up your inner creative. Just like going to the gym strengthens the body, dedicating time to make art helps to boost your mood and bring more balance into your life. Explore the Community Bank of Inspiration to see how friends and family have interpreted past art exercises and learn more about the NYC stories connected to each prompt.

2. Meet Up and Make Art Together

If you are in NYC, come to one of our free monthly meet ups to try one of our art exercises and make new friends. These gatherings are relaxed, welcoming, and open to all creative abilities. We can host creative sessions in all kinds of community events and public spaces across NYC. You never know which NYC space we'll activate next!

3. Create at Home and Share Your Work

If you prefer to create at home, sign up to the mailing list to get free Artwork Outs mailed straight to your door. It's like receiving a love letter to your imagination!
