About this Event
Want to learn how to Tie Dye with colors that complement each other and a technique for focusing and relaxing to let your creativity flow?
Join Juliette O'Brill, Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design Admissions Outreach Counselor and Artist, for this artful event and create a one of a kind tie dyed shirt after a short review of color theory and a wellness activity, on Saturday, April 13 at Meininger's Denver store, 499 N. Broadway, from 11am-2pm.
Engaging in a practice of centering and grounding before making art can have a profound effect on the decision making process. By taking a moment to center, you have an opportunity to slow down and calm allowing your creative process to emerge. Grounding is similar and helps to build confidence in the present moment.

- 11:00-11:15 - Check-In, get supplies
