Introduction to Zentangle Workshop

Saturday, October 3rd, 2026 - 2:00PM

Join us for a 2-hour session teaching the basics of Zentangle! Zentangle is a meditative doodling process where there are no mistakes, and the result is always beautiful. Zentangle is an 8-step meditation process, where art is the result but not the goal—the goal is centering in gratitude and appreciation.  We're pleased to be able to offer this class, often priced around $50, for only the cost of art supplies, which you get to keep.
