This summer, dive into a creative and calming journey with Mindfulness and Art. This program combines the joy of artistic expression with the relaxation of mindfulness activities, offering a balanced and enriching experience for young minds. Learners will explore a wide variety of art forms, including drawing, painting, collage, diamond art, zentangles, story or comic writing and even cardboard building projects to unleash their creativity in 3D. Each day, they’ll have the freedom to rotate through multiple art stations, trying out new techniques. These activities encourage self-expression, patience, and hands-on learning at their own pace. Each learner will have their own mixed media book that they can fill with their creations. Each day we will also feature a read-aloud story paired with mindfulness activities like guided breathing, meditation, and soothing music. These sessions are designed to help children connect with their inner calm, practice focus, and enjoy the process of creating art in a peaceful, supportive environment. Whether your child is a budding artist or just looking to unwind and try something new, this class offers the perfect space to create, relax, and grow!
