Participants get to keep permanent artwork they create. \nWhat and How: Starting with the basics of mindfulness\, participants will have the opportunity to hone awareness through observing and relating to natural forms through creative\, fun drawing activities. Using mindful movement\, breathing\, and the physical feedback loop\, we’ll engage all of our senses while creatively exploring our connection with all living things. After experimenting with a disappearing water-painting technique\, we’ll move on to making drawings on paper to take home. There will be an option to extend the art activity to make a visual statement about one’s own agency as change makers for the planet. \n			\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Vendors Booths are currently full.
