Reflections of Love: A Creative Journey Through Persian Art & Memories

A mindful collage workshop for seniors, guided by Shirin Aghdaie

In this gentle and inspiring two-hour workshop, seniors are invited to create meaningful collages that blend cherished personal photos with the rich beauty of Persian art. Led by artist Shirin Aghdaie, participants will explore delicate floral motifs, calligraphy, and poetic elements while reflecting on the people and moments that matter most.

Combining mindfulness, storytelling, and artistic expression, this session offers a calming space to honor memories, celebrate loved ones, and find joy in the creative process.

  • Time to gather inspiration, share stories, and connect with others
