In this eight-week series, kids explore their emotions using a mindful, art-based practice. Starting September 10, 2022, each Saturday kids (7 to 11 years) use art as a medium to investigate their emotions. The workshop series is designed to provide a holistic framework for kids to add to their emotional intelligence toolkit.

For flexibility, the workshops are designed to stand alone, therefore you don’t need to take the workshops in sequence, and you can pick and choose the workshops that align with your child’s interests/needs.

Sign up for an individual workshop for $45, or register for all eight workshops for $290.

Dates: Saturdays, September 10 – November 12, 2022 (no class October 8 or 15, 2022).
