Ten Tips for Creating a positive impact that an art fair inspired me

Last weekend, a friend gallerist invited me to a fabulous art fair he co-organizes in Blaye, southwest France. And I enjoyed a lot the disruptive and caring energy of the experience!

Let me describe the concept to you. During three days, 14 artists are exposed in the beautiful house of the art fair organizers. And here comes the genius! Each room and space of the house is dedicated to staging one artist. And their creations are integrated with home decoration. Besides, all artists are present to tell the why of their art and collections. While on top of that, some other local players open their studios and invite every visitor to immerse in their art. And all of this happens in a historical province city that benefits from the event.

What a moment! In a couple of days, I met inspiring artists and art amateurs. I have nurtured my Soul with beauty and esthetic. I had philosophical conversations. I discovered a fantastic energetic therapist. I danced at night. I appreciated the lovely hotel where we stayed. I felt at home with myself and with others. 

Almost one week later, I can still feel the vibes of the weekend, and I want to participate again next year and cultivate the new relations I have created. I am part of a meaningful social movement.

Both organizers have created a positive impact on the artists, the city, and the visitors. And from that experience, I have identified ten behaviors that catalyze that impact.

1. Nurture a community of like-minded people.
2. Create connections between them!
3. Share with the heart topics that you are passionate about.
4. Have a bold Vision and Commit to the long haul.
5. Invent unique solutions that serve your community.
6. Implement them by mixing expertise, creativity, and audacity.
7. Listen to your Intuition and act upon it.
8. Never give up, and be patient.
9. Play with the unexpected.
10. Celebrate the achievements with gratitude for all the people involved in your success.

Which one do you wish to develop on the coming months?

If you think you could create more impact; if you want to get clarity about your purpose; if you need more confidence to get off the beaten track; if you desire to serve the world your way; if you love human connections, we should have a conversation! Write to me privately, and we’ll set up a call.
