About this Event
Drawing as Meditation
Led by Juan Sebastian Restrepo
$35
All Materials Provided
This beginner-friendly workshop introduces drawing as a calming, meditative practice — a way to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the present moment through mark-making. Using simple materials like pencils, charcoal, and ink, participants will explore repetitive, intuitive drawing exercises designed to reduce stress and enhance focus. There’s no pressure to create a “finished” piece — the goal is to experience the act of drawing as mindfulness and self-care.
