ART4HEALING & STUDIO ART
ART SPEAKS WHERE WORDS CANNOT.
ART4HEALING
Certified in an established program called "Art4Healing", Crescent Moon Center's director will facilitate a theme-based two-hour art workshop using acrylics, watercolors, pastels and collage. It is a fast-paced painting project created around themes and questions within the themes, some allowing only 2 minutes to respond to. At the end of each exercise, participants are encouraged to share about their painting experience and the emotions involved. This is an educational exercise, and no prior art experience is necessary.
STUDIO ART
Center participants will have access to a well-equipped art studio which allows self-expression through art in an unstructured environment, selecting from a range of materials such as paint, clay, etc. An Artist in Residency will provide a peer mentorship to all particpants.

About the event
Designed for anyone seeking to break free from creative blocks, social anxiety, or self-doubt, this playful and supportive improv workshop offers a joyful take on embracing the moment.
Through authentic relating, improv games, storytelling, and laughter, you’ll learn to trust your instincts, say “yes” to new opportunities, and collaborate with others in a spirit of curiosity and acceptance. You will experience increased confidence, renewed creative energy, and learn tools to carry your true self into everyday life.
Improv exercises are used to help people open-up. It is not performance based and it is designed to be a safe, welcoming space for all. There is an emphasis on non-judgment and acceptance so that our innate creativity and soulful wisdom can blossom.
No experience is needed. All we ask for is a willingness to play and be curious.
