THE WINTER FOLD
An annual seasonal practice in slowing down, seeing differently, and finding warmth inside the quiet.
EACH WINTER WE FOLD INWARD...Into rest, reflection, community, and the subtle work of beginning again.
The Winter Fold is a small-group creative program that uses art, poetic inquiry, and contemplative practice to help you recalibrate your attention. No homework, no platforms, no performance—just one live session each week and an optional integration period to linger.
Curious but want to get a feel for what art and prompts feel like? Enjoy a sample inspired by last year’s content.

What You’ll Experience
A selection of artworks each week serves as an anchor for inquiry.
Each session includes a glimpse of context— less a lecture, more a digital gallery viewing with space to think and feel from the comfort of your home.
| Guided Reflection Weekly themes and prompts, supported by a printed or digital booklet. We’ll begin each session with a grounding practice and brief check-in before moving into reflection— first solo, then in small group conversation. |
60 minutes live + 30 minutes (bonus/optional) of camera-off co-integration.
A small group format allows for intimate discussion and quiet companionship— time held both for yourself and within community.
A tactile companion for collecting notes, drawings, clippings, and realizations— part field guide, part keepsake, designed to unfold alongside your season.
You’ll leave with steadier attention, gentle creative momentum, and a feeling of connection that lingers beyond the screen.
Session Themes
2. Presence & Practice · What does sustained attention make possible?
3. The Geometry of Quiet · What order allows us to feel free?
4. Landscape as Mirror · What do our surroundings reflect back?
5. Creative Cycles · How does rest feed creation?
6. Light & Return · What are we carrying forward from the dark?
“Thinking critically about art/artists and connecting their work to my life was most meaningful. Often times in a museum it's forced or strained; this was authentically resonant.”

Meet Your Guide
With over a decade of experience leading creative in marketing, Erica has spent their career guiding artists and designers to tell stories for brands. Now, they’re more interested in guiding creatives to explore stories rooted in history and wonder. How does learning and inspiration happen outside traditional structures? They see teaching as a creative practice, not a top-down transfer of knowledge but an open invitation to curiosity, experimentation, and communal discovery.
Their work is shaped by art history and spiritual inquiry, along with a deep commitment to making creative renewal accessible. They are a Berkeley trained executive coach and an ever-curious student of facilitation, self-inquiry, and artistic process.
Skypunch is an ongoing experiment—a space to get lost on purpose, to follow questions like threads, and to gather in the quiet where creativity stirs.
“This helped me reframe my creative practice and provided lovely and varied examples/models of a creative life.”

FAQ
Is this a class?
Not exactly. It’s more like a guided retreat in wintering. Each week stands alone, but together they create a full arc.
What if I miss a session?
You’ll receive a short recap via email so you can stay connected to the work.
Do I need any art background?
No. Curiosity is the only prerequisite.
Why small groups?
Intimacy is the method. Each cohort is capped at 12 so everyone can feel seen and heard.
