SUMMARY:Workshop: CreativiTEA - Presence through Painting
DESCRIPTION:What could be better than art-making\, self-discovery and tea? Learn how the act of painting can calm the mind in this workshop for adults.\n\n\n\nAn introduction to acrylic painting workshop that emphasizes the use of painting as a tool for mindfulness by centring one’s focus on working with the paint in the present moment. \nIn the workshop\, Athena calls on her over 20 years of experience in painting and teaches participants the basics of tracing a design onto a canvas\, applying paint and blending colours. This method of working encourages participants to push past the hurdle of the blank canvas\, allowing them to fully enjoy the benefits of experiencing a painting practice. \nThe inspiration for this workshop came from Athena’s experience with using a paint-by-number kit to create a soothing\, healing environment after a seizure scare in 2021. Using painting as part of her recovery reinforced her belief that by focusing people on the process of painting—as opposed to the final product—one could create a highly beneficial tool for mindfulness and emotional regulation. \n\n\n\n\n\n  \nWhat is a CreativiTEA? \nCreativiTEA is an in-person workshop series for grown-ups created by Tilted Windmills that combines fun\, insightful art-making activities with community-building through creativity. \nEach two-hour CreativiTEA session includes: \n\nA guided creative activity with all art supplies provided\nSocializing and discussion with tea and delicious goodies—also provided\n\n  \nWhat you don’t need to bring to CreativiTEA? \nAny concerns about your perceived “artistic ability” or level of “talent”! The workshops are intended for anyone who wants to explore art-making and dive headfirst into the world of creativity. \nTickets are limited! If you can’t make this workshop\, we encourage you to follow our Eventbrite page to be notified of future workshops. \n\n\n\nYour CreativiTEA facilitators \nAthena splits her time between being a professional visual artist and a creativity coach with Tilted Windmills. By blending her training as both a therapeutic arts practitioner and a life coach\, she helps people tap into their creativity and potentially draw forth unexpected insights from the more visual side of their minds. \nStefan is Tilted Windmills’ clinical counsellor and a self-described wounded healer. He holds a Master’s degree in Social Work (clinical specialization) from the University of Calgary and strongly believes in the power of utilizing creativity as a pathway to help people explore\, discover and grow. \n\n\n\nYour Event Venue Host: \nAtelier Artista @ cSPACE Marda Loop (4th floor) \nAtelier Artista is a skills-based fine art school focused on fostering appreciation and understanding of well-crafted\, beautiful representational artworks through the development of the technical skills necessary to create them. They offer a wide variety of courses in drawing and painting techniques. \nWait! Isn’t cSPACE closed on Sundays? \nCreativiTEA is considered a private event being hosted by Atelier Artista\, so rest assured\, we will be waiting at the doors to let folks in.
