"The best hands-on session I have ever been to! Absolutely loved the interaction, role play, lecture and art!"
"I found the workshop fun and informative. It helped me see how Art can impact an individual more on a therapeutic level. I also found it helpful in my own approach to get individuals not interested in art sessions to engage"

You can expect to engage through hands-on art-making demos, meditation, and refreshing discussions in a small group setting.
We will address the meaning of therapeutic boundaries, confidence and imposter syndrome, the ingredients necessary for safe spaces, and how to tap into non-judgmental curiosity.
Whether you devote your work to children, youth, adults, or older adults, the same principles still apply.
Get your crayons ready! You will leave the training with an updated approach towards art making, easy to apply techniques and creative projects, and a calm, inspired mind.
No formal art experience necessary.
