Welcoming In March

anyafeeney

Hi everyone!


Wrapping up the month of February, that felt like it flew by, and also our first month of the After School Art and Mindfulness program! It was such a sweet few weeks where we met at the Rose Garden, made clay creatures, mixed colors, ate yummy snacks, and had tea.

The sunny warm weather was an added bonus. We also went on a fairy hunt and enjoyed a day of rain together!


We also took in our surroundings and grounded into our art practice before diving into what we wanted to create. Learning how to center ourselves before we create has so many added benefits such as more clear problem solving, boosting our creativity, and learning to enjoy the art process! Art is more than just the end result and more about how we get to where we are through the process of creating. While each kid is going to have a different art piece come through in the end, knowing that they took the time to figure out how to create and work through ways to get what they envisioned is worth the process of creating.


For March I am so excited to dive into collage making, printmaking, and more painting with the kids. We will also work on more grounding techniques before we start each art project and snack. Welcoming in spring will be another added bonus of the month and I am excited to do some projects surrounding that season.

We will still be meeting at the Mission Rose Garden this month from 2:30-4:30pm Tuesday-Thursday, see you all in March!


xx,

Anya
