Join us on August 11 for our 2026 Book Club: Creative Essentials session with Grace Hawthorne.
In this virtual conversation, Grace will dive into the Creative Essential: Don’t procrastinate–prototype. She’ll share insights from her career as an inventor, entrepreneur, and educator, exploring how experimentation, rapid prototyping, and learning by doing can unlock creativity and transform ideas into reality.
Grace is an entrepreneur, artist, an Adjunct Professor at the d.school and Founder/CEO of Paper Punk, the addictive and award winning creativity toy that was dubbed ”the love child of Lego and origami”. She is the author of Make Possibilities Happen, a book that encourages readers to take action, embrace experimentation, and create positive change through practical creativity.
You’ll hear directly from Grace, connect with fellow participants in small group discussions, and join a live Q&A. This session is designed for anyone interested in creativity and wanting to take action—whether you’re launching a new project, solving problems, or looking to stimulate momentum into your work.
Welcome to this procrastination-busting session!
