About this Event
For as long as people have existed, we’ve gathered around tables, fires, and kitchen counters to make things with our hands. Crafting has always been a way to mark the seasons, to tell stories, and to feel connected—to ourselves and to our communities. Modern research now confirms what makers have known for generations: creating with our hands slows the nervous system, reduces stress hormones, and supports emotional regulation by engaging the parts of the brain linked to focus, sensory processing, and calm. In The Makers Circle, we return to this simple, human tradition—gathering, creating, and letting the act of making become a soft space for reflection, grounding, and gentle growth.
Each session includes a guided creative activity, space for reflection, and takeaway skills and practices you can use in daily life. All materials are provided by Sydney, a registered therapist and artist.
No previous crafting experience needed.
Candle Decorating:
Together we will be decorating taper candles with colourful paint-like wax. All materials are supplied by the facilitator.
