Expression Sessions: Community Art Circles AUGUST

Join in community to create, express, and play with paint and other art mediums. Monthly sessions (last Tuesday) each with a unique theme.
About this Event

Expression Sessions Community Art Circle is a monthly, in person gathering where we come together to create, connect, and reconnect with ourselves through the creative process.

There is something uniquely special about creating art in community; our individual expressions come together to create something larger, connecting us to one another and to something bigger than ourselves.

Each session begins with a gentle guided meditation or awareness practice before moving into open art making. Meigan offers a gentle theme each month as an optional starting point for your creative exploration, while leaving plenty of space for you to follow your own curiosity and inspiration.

ALL ART MATERIALS PROVIDED

There will be a delightful selection of art materials, including watercolours, paints, chalk and oil pastel, paint markers, markers, pencil crayons, collage materials, and more.
