Free Workshop – Art Therapy & Card Swap: Valentine’s Day Edition 🎨

🆓 Event type: FREE (all materials are included)
📅 When: Sunday, 8 February 2026
⏰ Starting at: 11:00 AM
📍 Location: The Youth — by FNT - Room "The DIY"

Since the cold weather continues, I’m inviting you to a cozy indoor Valentine-themed art workshop focused on relationships in the broadest sense, with others, with yourself, and with the world around you, using colored pencils and paper🎨

This workshop is not about romantic love !

You’re welcome whether you’re single, in a relationship, somewhere in between, or not thinking about romance at all.

We’ll use simple, art-therapy–inspired exercises to reflect on connection, balance, and expression in a gentle, playful way.

No artistic talent or experience required.

Expats, tourists, and locals are all welcome.
If at least one participant doesn’t speak Romanian, the workshop will be held in English; otherwise, we’ll use Romanian.

⭐ What We’ll Do

• Start with a short introduction
• A few simple creative exercises, to reflect on balance, connection, and the way we show up in relationships, without overthinking or over-explaining.
• Create handmade greeting cards using color
• Swap cards at the end as a light, creative and fun way to connect

All materials are included: paper, colored pencils, and markers. You’re welcome to bring extra materials if you like.

We’ll also gently discuss how colors, shapes, and creative choices can reflect inner states, always as a guide, never as fixed meanings.

Optional: share your artwork or reflections with the group.

🌿 What to Expect

• Friendly, calm, and inclusive atmosphere
• No artistic skills required — this workshop is about expression and curiosity, not performance
• A non-commercial, supportive space inspired by art therapy principles
• A fun, non-romantic card exchange
• You can bring a warm drink (tea or coffee) to feel cozy

Optional: after the workshop, we can go for lunch nearby. Each person covers their own meal.

Disclaimer:
This is a casual, non-commercial workshop hosted by a certified Worker Through Combined Arts with knowledge of art therapy techniques. I’m offering this workshop for free as part of my own learning journey, and because it brings me joy to bring people together through art.
This is not a therapy session, just a creative way to explore emotions safely. Participants are responsible for their own belongings.

📝 RSVP Info
The workshop is limited to 10 participants.
