Art and Mindfulness Embroidery Workshop

Art & Mindfulness Workshop

This relaxing workshop starts with a meditation on a poem or text, with prompts for journaling and reflection. Participants are invited, but never required, to share their insights. Lauren will then demonstrate the technique that is the focus of the workshop. Open art-making and casual discussion will follow, with a final opportunity to share what you make. Workshops are open to individuals with all levels of art experience. If you want to create, you are welcome here!
