Gaithersburg Artist Collective

Join us for a creative mindfulness and mark-making workshop using natural materials, traditional art media, and nature-inspired design practices. This experiential art workshop invites participants to slow down, reconnect creatively, and explore expressive art-making in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Create original designs inspired by nature and handmade creative processes while engaging with mindfulness-based art practices focused on observation, texture, movement, and playful experimentation. This workshop encourages curiosity, relaxation, and creative expression without pressure, perfectionism, or performance. Samples, natural studies, materials, and guided prompts will be provided. Whether you are new to art or have years of creative experience, this workshop is designed to help rekindle a sense of play, reflection, and creative renewal.

Ages 12 and up.

All skill levels welcome. All supplies provided. Please wear clothes that can get messy, or bring a smock.
