Meditate and Create Workshop - 11/16/19
Saturday, November 16, 2019 11:00am-3:00pm
Interactive workshop with guided meditation followed by creation of your own personal art work, writing, painting, drawing, sewing, music and the like, guided by two experienced in art and meditation.
At this workshop you will learn about meditation through discussion and demonstration, immediately followed by a full-scale deep guided meditation practice, written especially for this occasion by LE Grimshaw, with a focus on creativity and creation. Handouts will be provided.
Cheryl Zemke will share some of her art experience and suggest fun ideas in making art in a group, prior to meditation. The meditation is followed by hands-on art creation in your choice of media. Basic supplies (school supply) will be available in limited quantities and you are encouraged to bring in your own project and supply. Fiber, knit supply, yarn and fabric, paper for creative writing, advanced design coloring books, pencils, paints, canvas, old magazines, glitter and glue, random small wood pieces, small rocks or stones, acoustic instruments (for song-writing), modelling clay, crayons and markers are just a few suggestions of what you might bring to work with. We will have newspapers to lay out under your work.
You are encouraged to bring a partner! Be it a best friend, child, grandchild or grandchildren (12 and under get discount), life partner or work buddy. All levels of meditation experience are appropriate, as well as people who consider that they are non-creative - because we know better! We are all creators! Let's have some fun together!
Bring a bag lunch if you will need it. We will have nibbles and sweets. Bring plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. If you feel you may want to lay down (chairs provided) then a yoga-style mat or blanket goes on your list. We like to think of the preparation and collection of your supply as planning for the journey, like you would a vacation. That's why it's in a group setting - so much more joyful when shared.
This is a true adventure in meditation and creation and we look forward to greeting you and walking down this path with you. We encourage comment in a positive manner, but there will be no contest or rating of your work at the end. You will take your work home with you as your personal memento of the meditation and creation event.
There will be a formal agenda that will be loosely followed as the group’s energy will guide our hours together.
Cost: $25 per adult/$20 children 12 and under (must be accompanied by an adult)
