Mandalas: Art Therapy

Who:
ESU art therapy student Tyler Reagan, other members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and YOU! I can hear you now: "I'm not an artist!" Great! This is not a class or critique. "I can't even draw a stick figure!" Awesome. Draw a wonky one. Channel your inner Ms. Frizzle and "take chances, make mistakes, get messy!" Sometimes art therapy looks like making a big mess. And oftentimes it looks like expressing yourself, building resilience, and connecting with others.

What:
Make art in a safe, inclusive, nonjudgmental, super-gay environment. Here are some of the art therapy projects we will be working on (stay with me; some scary words in here): foil art, neurographic drawing, weaving, mandalas, polymer clay magnets, and much more. I will explain everything. I am sure you can glue some sh-stuff together. Join any session. This is an open group.

When:
Sundays 3:15-4:45 pm

Where:
Johnson County Library - Central Resource Center - Room 13.
RSVP not required. Event is open beyond Meetup.

How:
No cost to attend. Limited materials will be available. If you can bring some, great! If you can bring some to share, even better! Bring any materials you want to best express yourself. You can simply draw your mandala 2D or you can make it 3D and as intricate as you like. It's your artwork, so it's totally up to you. There are no right or wrong ways to do it.

Obligatory Confidentiality Statement:
RSVPing on Meetup and entering a public space can compromise your confidentiality. You knew that already.
