Art Making Adventures
with Jane Bishow-Semevolos
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!
