Eastport Arts Center is pleased to present, Zentangle: A Mindful Drawing Practice, with Ann Cannizzaro. Sessions will be offered March 22 and April 26, 10 am-noon; they are designed for students ages 12 and up.Known for promoting concentration and creativity while serving as a form of meditation for students, Zentangle is a popular drawing method for all skill levels. Workshop attendees will learn about Zentangle techniques, such as ‘tangles’, ‘tiles’, and ‘strings’, while creating intricate small drawings. Each workshop will offer new design techniques for those who have participated in previous Zentangle study; it will also be appropriate for beginners.
An educator, artist, and lifelong learner, Cannizzaro is a beloved instructor at EAC, with a calm and mellow teaching style. She has engaged our community with creative sessions of Summer Arts Camp, each with its own media/theme; a needle felting workshop; and many sessions of ornament-making; and frequents other instructors’ EAC classes to expand her skills.
“Zentangle found me when I needed a way to find calm and inspiration in my life,” says Ann. “I was going through a difficult period and Zentangle helped me to find artistic flow and creativity when everything else was on ‘overwhelm.’”
The workshop is for ages 12 and up; space is limited and registration, by email to [email protected] or below, is requested. A $20 fee covers materials to be used in class; additional materials will be available for purchase if desired. A sliding fee scale (pay what you can) is available by request.
