Workshop Description

Come as you are to this nurturing and non-judgmental space where art becomes a quiet companion to self-expression and emotional release. In this free-flow creative workshop, you’ll be invited to explore painting and drawing in your own time and way—intuitively, gently, and without pressure.

There are no rules or expectations—just time to slow down, listen inwardly, and express whatever arises through colour, line, and form. Whether you’re picking up a brush for the first time or returning to creativity after a long pause, this is a space to reconnect with yourself and others in an open, supportive environment.

We’ll end the session with an optional sharing circle—an opportunity to speak about your experience or simply witness and listen. There’s no pressure to contribute, only an invitation to be part of a gentle, collective moment.

All materials are provided. No previous art experience is needed—just bring yourself.
