2nd Sat Children's Meditational Art Class FREE

Meditative Art is applying a meditative state of mind while expressing creativity. Meditative Art is less about drawing and more about slowing down and opening up to your inner creative and intuitive flow. It’s a simple, reflective creative practice that anyone can do!

Each class begins with a quick overview of the topic of the day and see examples for inspiration. Then, Michelle will walk the class through a guided relaxation meditation. Immediately after, we will use the provided colored pencils, crayons, and markers on drawing paper to create artwork. If you would rather use a different medium such as paint and canvas, please feel free to bring your own supplies.

An example of a class topic would be focusing on the mandala, an integrated structure organized around a unifying center. It represents wholeness, and can be seen as a model for the organizational structure of life itself and can be found repeatedly in nature. The mandala appears in all aspects of life: the celestial circles of the earth, sun, and moon, as well as conceptual circles of friends, family, and community. It is a cosmic diagram that reminds us of our relation to the infinite. Children would see examples in nature as well as examples of mandala artwork. Then, they would make their own.
