To slow down. To create. To gather.
A two-hour invitation to slow down, gather with others, and reconnect with your own creativity. Get to know a range of materials - paint, pastel, and more - through playful, hands-on exploration. No art experience needed - just an open hand, a willingness to try something new, and the quiet company of others doing the same. Together, the group will create one shared piece by the evening's end.
Sept 30, 7–9pm
Chorus and Clouds, 197 East 17th Ave
This single evening is also an introduction to The Shared Canvas Series, five two-hour sessions running October 7 – November 4. Come to the first offering to see if it's a good fit for you.
It is about what we all take away. How we feel when we sing together, how a song can make a child smile or soothe them during tough times. The list of benefits acquired from singing and music making is extensive. We may not see it right away, but if we pay attention, we will soon discover how important a role music plays in a child's development. The connections fostered between peers in each class is amazing to see and we love watching our little friends come to life in each and every class. Come join the fun!
