SUMMARY:Mindful Art-Making: Open Art Studio

You pick a seat\, settle in\, and start creating. Some people follow a guided prompt or ask for assistance to get started. Some bring their own project. Some just doodle and see what happens. There’s no instruction and no pressure\, however\, your facilitator is available to help get you started. \nWhat’s included:\nAll art materials (painting\, drawing\, mixed media etc.)\nOptional guided creative prompts\nA warm\, relaxed space facilitated by an Art Therapist (Hanna Verhagen\, MC\, DVATI\, BA\, CCC)\nTea and soft music\nNo art experience needed.\nLimited to 8 people \nThis is a great first step if you’re curious about using art therapeutically or just want a meaningful way to start your Saturday.\n“Hanna is welcoming\, calming\, and empowers people to embrace their creativity to benefit their mental health.”\nAfter booking\, you’ll receive a short consent form and event reminders via JaneApp.
