Author Elizabeth Gilbert says “Often what keeps you from creative living is your self- absorption. (your self-doubt, self disgust, self- judgement, or your crushing sense of self- protection.)”

So at Make-It Springfield we encourage you to let your creative projects and ideas flow. Speak it, do it every day and don’t ever think you have to defend who and what you are. You are a creative being, and we will support you in one way or the other. Be who you are and who you want to be with all your heart and soul, for after all, we all come from generation after generation after generation of makers and creators.

Roberta Wilmore, Make-It Springfield Executive Director
