Craft Your Magical Identity Being

Craft Your Magical Identity Being (also known as Identity as a Creative Space) is Julian’s longest running workshop. It has been run since 2017 at locations such as the NY Public Library, NYU, The Children’s Museum of the Arts, LA Makerfaire, community spaces, and more. This creative workshop invites participants to reflect on what they love most about themselves and transform those qualities into a visual, magical identity. Through guided activities, participants will explore their strengths, values, and unique traits, learning to embrace and celebrate their individuality. Using a variety of upcycled materials, textiles, and mixed media, they will craft a representation of their “magical identity being”—a character, symbol, or wearable piece that brings their inner magic to life.

Whether it’s through whimsical accessories, symbolic creations, or imaginative creatures, this hands-on process allows participants to express their true selves in a meaningful and fun way. No crafting experience is necessary, as the focus is on self-exploration and creative expression. This workshop offers a safe, supportive space to embrace vulnerability, share ideas, and connect with others while creating something deeply personal and empowering. Leave with a visual representation of your most cherished qualities and a reminder of the magic you bring to the world.
