ONLINE LEARNING

FREE FLO CREATIVE COMMUNITY

Find your people. Find your flow.

FREE FLO is a colorful online global community of kindred creatives lovingly guided by Flora Bowley.

Enrollment for FREE FLO is now open. This only happens twice a year, so now is the time to jump into the flow, friends! Doors close October 11th

FREE FLO was born in the Fall of 2022 as my way to offer more depth, intimacy, and an ongoing “flow” of creative inspiration to my online community of brave painters. Since then, FREE FLO has quickly become a vibrant creative hub, and it continues to strengthen, deepen, and evolve with each passing month.

With options to dip in for a month or dive in for a year, FREE FLO offers easy-to-navigate live weekly classes, a supportive interactive community, small group PODS, daily creative prompts, over 40 archived classes, and so much more.

Members of FREE FLO will receive a special invitation to “Camp FREE FLO” at my new Oregon retreat center next Summer, as well as being the first to hear about all of my 2024 retreat offerings. Members also receive 30% off all my other online courses.

Find out more about FREE FLO here. We’d love to welcome you in!
