You don't have to be good at art to make art. The goal of this class is not to create better artists but to inspire the person within, create a feeling of relaxation, and improve well-being. 

Through these classes, we will create art focusing on the process rather than the product.  We will encourage you to step outside your comfort zone and give it a try. Through the intentional process of art reflection, we encourage participants to untangle thoughts, make meaning and gain self-awareness. This often leads to new perspectives and opportunities to improve wellbeing all while having fun!

This class is for adults and mature teens of all skill levels, and all materials are included.
