Each class in this six-part workshop series will include opportunities for mindfulness practice as well as short exercises and discussions designed to spark creative thinking. In a goal-oriented society, we tend to overlook the beneficial and even healing aspect of the creative process itself, whether or not there is a final product. Mindfulness practice allows us to approach our creative endeavours with a sense of inquiry and appreciation, while also honouring our intuition and personal experience. The six sessions will run from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm and are scheduled for the following days:
October 2, 16, 30
November 6, 20
December 4
All workshops will take place at the Museum at Campbell River.
Cost: $160 for non-members
(10% discount for members will be applied after the workshop)
