Mindful Art & Creative Expression Workshop

Partake in a peaceful 3-hour art session that exudes the tranquil essence of a Sunday morning. Together, we'll delve into a journey of self-discovery, utilising color, texture, and movement to authentically express our inner selves.

 

This workshop warmly welcomes everyone and provides a nurturing environment to craft something that reflects your individuality. For many, the joy of playing with colours and brushes hasn't been explored since childhood. Let's embark on this creative endeavour together in a mindful atmosphere at The Flame.

 

Studies have indicated that engaging with specific forms of art can elevate serotonin levels, directly associated with feelings of happiness and overall well-being. When feeling low, the simple act of wielding a brush can instill tranquility, fostering mental focus and sparking fresh inspiration.

 

Moreover, art serves as a conduit for community building. Sharing artistic experiences allows for profound connections with others on a profound level.

 

The session is 3 hours and includes light refreshments.

 

At the end, you'll have your very own canvas, brushes, and palette to take home, commemorating the creation of your unique masterpiece.

Limited spaces please book early to avoid disappointment.
