DayTime Art Lab

Each class will feature one of a relaxed rotation of creative experiences such as collage, neurodrawing, paper weaving, mark making, zine-making, and more. Explore the process and the materials without attachment to the product -- and meet new people along the way.
Paper Weaving: Use a wide array of textured, colorful strips to create beautiful weavings that can become greeting cards or simply enjoyed as they are.
Mark Making: We’ll experiment with using found objects and acrylic paints to create patterns and shapes. It's chill — we're getting our hands dirty, appreciating color and texture, and maybe even expressing ourselves. No brushes allowed!
Collage: Join us for a casual collage get-together! Meet other cool humans and play with a huge assortment of unusual materials.
Neurodrawing: Did you know that experiencing the arts changes the wiring of our brains? In this class, we'll get in touch with our wiring using a mindfulness drawing exercise – and connect with others through creativity.
Vision Boards: Take a break to connect with your inner life and envision your goals. Use a wide variety of paper goods to memorialize your vision and keep it in your line of sight.
Zine-Making: Learn to cut and fold a little book that's ready for collage, storytelling, or ideas.
