Painting for Wellbeing
Experience the calm and relaxation of painting as a mindfulness practice
Drawing and painting are not just for artists. When approached with mindfulness, creative practices become powerful tools for focus, relaxation, and well-being. In this six-week course, you’ll explore simple, accessible ways to use art as a form of meditation and self-expression. Each session combines art and mindfulness techniques designed to help you develop a deeper sense of presence, calm, and joy. As we shift from striving to noticing, from judgment to curiosity, we’ll discover how creativity can reconnect us with our natural wisdom so we may move beyond stress and to reclaim a life of awe and wonder. This is a space for play, reflection, and personal insight—no art or meditation experience required.
Format: 6 week course, 90 minute sessions
Dates: Wednesdays, 6-7:30pm, September 16 - October 28
Exploring Meditation
Enhance your creativity through mindfulness
This unique program is designed to help you develop a consistent and meaningful meditation practice that deepens awareness and enhances creativity. By experimenting with different tools and techniques, you’ll be guided in forming your own sustainable, personal meditation program - one that feels natural, inspired and in sync with your daily life.
Whether you are new to meditation, or already have a regular practice, this program offers gentle structure, support, and creative insight to help you stay engaged and grounded. The goal is not perfection, but presence - through a practice that feels alive, adaptable, and authentically yours.
Format: 4 week course, 60 minute sessions on Zoom
Dates: Monday evenings, 6-7pm, August 3-24, 2026
Tai Chi/Qi Gong
Find peace in the mind and body through moving meditation
This program is designed for artists who want to deepen their practice, develop a specific body of work, or seek support in navigating creative challenges. Unlike other courses on The Art Path, this offering is shaped by the goals and needs of each small cohort, allowing for a flexible and responsive curriculum. Each session blends mindful art exercises, group discussion, and personalized feedback to help you stay present, focused, and connected to your creative intentions. Whether you’re refining a project, overcoming blocks, or simply craving a more conscious relationship with your art, this space offers thoughtful structure, and gentle accountability and encouragement.
Format: 6 week course, 60 minute sessions on Zoom
