Selfcare Workshop | Worldbuilders

Did you know that art can promote well-being and have a positive impact on our mental health? Through the Zentangle technique, painting and drawing, poetic expression, dance and other artistic disciplines, you will develop self-confidence, learn self-acceptance and stress management. You will also learn effective ways to get in touch with different – including more difficult – emotions, and make it easier to enter social relationships without stereotypes and prejudices. You can choose a single workshop that interests you or sign up for both meetings.

Create unusual artistic worlds with us during Saturday meetings at WOAK!
