The Art of Self Stewardship with Kristine
Jul

The Art of Self Stewardship with Kristine

This workshop is designed for women who are experiencing or are recovering from chronic stress and burnout to develop a practice of mindful, creative self-stewardship. Participants will create handmade journals for practicing simple art techniques and noting insights during the 4 week class, and will leave the workshop with their own mindful making kit.

Based on the work of Cynda Rushton, PhD and Roshi Joan Halifax, PhD, this series will include recognizing when our best intentions become harmful edge states, learning practices to regain and maintain energy, balance, and creativity, and connecting through sharing circles. No art experience required as we will be experimenting with simple pen line drawing and watercolor painting.

All materials will be provided. This workshop series will take place at the Fuller Lodge Art Center (2132 Central Avenue). Please note that this workshop is also in service of our instructor's degree program and some observations may appear in her final research paper.

To inquire about a scholarship for this series, please reach out to Classes@LAAC-FLAC.org

Please note this is a four week workshop meeting weekly on Tuesday evenings from 6-8 PM. Purchasing a seat in this workshop entitles the participant to all four weeks. Sessions are not sold individually.

Dates:

Tue 7/14 from 6-8 PM

Tue 7/21 from 6-8 PM

Tue 7/28 from 6-8 PM

Tue 8/4 from 6-8 PM

Slow stitching & mending
Jun

Slow stitching & mending

Join us for a night of slow stitching and mending practice. We will have mending kits on hand to try out! Bring a project to work on or pick up some supplies from ours. A $5 donation is suggested to help cover mending kits and other supplies used, but the event is free.

Why Slow Stitching? Why Mending? In today’s busy world, it can be tempting to “toss it” and replace it. More and more, folks are looking for ways to slow down, fix it rather than forget it, learn new skills and build a community with others who share these goals. Ditch the phone for a night (okay, let’s admit we’ll probably have to get on YouTube to check out some tutorials, but you know what we mean) and hang out with friends or find new friends at these slow stitching craft workshops.

No experience necessary, bring your own supplies or use ours. Thanks to the Los Alamos Teen Center for sponsoring this series and to the McCune Charitible Foundation for their support in bringing communities together to share art, skills, and build a more resilient Los Alamos!
