Workshop Description:

Spring Into Bloom is a 10-week mixed-media workshop series inspired by the themes of spring—renewal, growth, transformation, and creative possibility. Participants will explore a range of accessible art techniques, including sculpture, collage, painting, textile art, and alternative photographic processes using affordable and recycled materials. Each session introduces a new artistic method while encouraging mindful reflection and playful experimentation.
