Let’s Unearth Your Name’s Magic! Join us for an evening of art, connection, and self-discovery.
Join us for a soul-nourishing evening of creativity, self-discovery, and community. In this Thoughtful Thursday session, we’ll explore the magic of names—the stories they hold, the whispers of our past, and the seeds of our future.
What to Expect
- Playful Exploration: Warm up with engaging activities that celebrate the beauty of names. Whether you’re “Alice,” “Zephyr,” or somewhere in between, we’ll honor the uniqueness of each name.
- Compassionate Connection: Reflect on your relationship with yourself and others. How do you view your name? What does it evoke? Let curiosity guide you.
- Creative Expression: Dive into art-making using materials such as ribbon, felt, tissue paper, cardboard, magazine images, markers, pastels, and colored pencils. Transform your name into a visual masterpiece that reflects your strengths and passions.
- Nature’s Touch: Feel free to bring found objects—shells, sticks, rocks, leaves, photos, mementos—that resonate with you. Let them contribute to the personality of your name design.
- Sharing Circle: If you choose, share your artwork in a small group or dyad. Validate the positive relationship you’re exploring with yourself and the impact of this expressive experience.
