Connect & Create: Affirmation Trading Cards with Simmin Joy Holland
Couldn't load pickup availability
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 10:00am - 12:00pm PT
This is an in-person workshop at CfM Art Room:
4035 Judah St, San Francisco, next door to our shop!
Art is therapeutic! Connect with your own inner wisdom through expressive art activities designed to deepen self-reflection and creative expression. Simmin will guide you through a series of activities - including a short meditation, writing for reflection, and watercolor for expression - to design your own affirmation cards. The session will end with us trading cards with one another so everyone leaves with a set of affirmations from the community. No experience needed.
