About the event
In this gentle and inspiring workshop, we’ll explore the healing potential of art through the sacred symmetry of mandalas and the vibrant blue magic of cyanotype printing. Rooted in mindfulness and self-expression, this experience invites you to slow down, connect with nature, and express your inner world through hands-on creation.
Together, we’ll gather in a calming, supportive space where you’ll be guided through the meditative process of creating floral mandalas using fresh and dried botanicals. You’ll learn how mandala-making supports emotional regulation, reduces stress, and brings us into a more present, embodied state.
Once your floral compositions are set with intention, you’ll harness the power of sunlight (or UV light, depending on the weather) to transform them into unique indigo prints using the historic cyanotype process.
You’ll create three 8.5" x 11" healing mandalas to take home—beautiful works of art that can be displayed, gifted, or used in personal rituals.…
