About the Event
Do you desire a creative space in which to become more aligned with what you deeply long for?
Join Christine for this beautiful 4-week journey where you will experience art-making as a tool for self-discovery and personal growth, within a light-filled studio, in supportive community setting. During this series, you will be introduced to the therapeutic benefits of working with various art mediums- such as inks, collage-making & more while exploring the ways in which you are changing and evolving at this juncture in your life.
