Let’s Make Art in the Park

**We are on Winter Hiatus** We will resume art in the park in the spring. We are working towards year-round free Art Quest events. Look forward to Melissa's workshop 'What colour are your emotions?' picking back up in May. Events are held monthly until October.

What Colour Are Your Emotions? Workshop: By Melissa

In this workshop, Melissa helps you find other ways to identify, understand, and process your experiences. The workshop begins with grounding ourselves in our bodies. We then: 1) pick a reoccurring thought; 2) follow that thought to it's underlying feeling; 3) explore where that feeling lingers in the body; 4) and finally we paint that feeling that exists in our bodies.

Painting the interconnection between our feelings, thoughts, and body gives us an alternative language that helps us intentionally grow into ourselves with more confidence and love.

This workshop is built upon the themes and ideas of allowing oneself to authentically create art without the supervision of shame, capitalism, or expectations. There is no one right way to process our feelings & experiences — including the art we make. We are here to move at the pace of trust, love, & curiousity.
