Registration is OPEN: Helpful Tips for Creative Journey Art Retreat Registration

Edited to add: Registration is open NOW!

As I announced, registration for my next Virtual Creative Journey Art Retreat which will be held January 14-15, 2023 is this Sunday, October 9th at 10a ET. This event typically sells out quickly, so I thought I would share some tips to help you with registering on Sunday.

Want a reminder text on your phone 15 minutes before registration opens? Text “jennshurkus” (all one word) to 833-758-0501

I also hosted a LIVE going over this and you can watch the replay here

Some quick things to note about the event that I get a lot of questions about:

• The Virtual Creative Journey Art Retreat will be hosted LIVE on private YouTube videos, you do not need a Facebook account to participate. There will be a private Facebook group for attendees to join if they would like, but all important information about the event will be communicated via email or posted on the event resource page which is hosted here on shurkus.com
• If you can’t attend the event LIVE you will have access to all event videos and replays.

I encourage you to read over the Virtual Creative Journey Art Retreat page to learn even more about this fabulous event.

More information about registration:

I recently upgraded my site, and part of those upgrades is to hopefully help registration for large events like this run smoother. I also am investing in an upgrade to my web hosting for the time of registration. Think of it as my site is a one-lane highway right now, and when everyone tries to register, that one-lane highway gets blocked, and things break. Well, I have upgraded my site to a four-lane highway for high traffic times during registration and this will hopefully help. As always with technology things can happen. If you are experiencing any errors or delays during registration, please know I am frantically working behind the scenes to get things working and up and running as soon as possible. Fingers crossed for a smooth process, and I appreciate your patience.

Become familiar with my new site- be sure to set up an account ahead of time and know your password.

set up/log into your account here

fill out as much information as possible in your account to help speed up the registration process, this also helps me assist you down the road when you have questions about classes you have registered for, etc. Fill out your name, billing address, shipping address, etc.

At the time of registration, you will want to either go to the shop, then click “classes & events”

OR you can just choose “classes” from the menu.

The classes on this page are divided into Upcoming Classes, and then in chronological order, and then Classes On-Demand. You will want to scroll to the bottom of the Upcoming Classes, to see the Creative Journey Art Retreat since it is hosted in January.

You can register for a friend or even two friends, but be sure to know all of their info

• First Name
• Last Name
• Email
• Mailing Address

You will not be able to purchase anything else from my shop while registering for the Creative Journey Art Retreat.

You will be able to pay with either a credit card or PayPal.

If you live locally, you can choose “local pickup” and we can coordinate that when the boxes are ready.

You will not get a confirmation email until the Art Retreat box has shipped. Boxes will ship at least two weeks before the event, but due to the holidays, I am hoping to ship even further out.

If you would like to see your order and confirm your order, you can log into your account and choose “orders”.

When logged in you can also choose “my classes & events” and then choose the Virtual Creative Journey Art Retreat, January 2023 and you will be brought to the event resource page. Here you will find a link to the private Facebook group if you would like to join, remember this is not required to take part in the event. On the event resource page, you will also soon find a downloadable supply list and links to supplies. As we get closer to the event there will be other resources posted as well

• A video of the box contents for you to watch once your box arrives to be sure you have everything
• Downloadable event handout
• Links to the event LIVEs
• Discount codes to shop with the sponsors
• and more

I would love it if you help spread the word about this event. Download the image below, by clicking it, the image will be on your screen and you can choose to save it and then share it on your social media! Be sure to tag me @jennshurkus and use #CreativeJourneyCapeCod
