WHAT TO EXPECT + DISCUSSION: After a brief welcome and time for announcements, we will dive right into a creative time of hands-on art journaling and easy conversation. In this workshop, Emily Burlingame (our Nature Outing Coordinator and former art teacher) will walk us through a thoughtful, step-by-step journaling page. No prior artistic skills are needed! Even if you fear that you’re not “creative” — we encourage you to come hang out with us and give it a try, you might find yourself surprised!
We know Wednesday evenings can be full and the drive for some of our friends is an investment. Sports schedules and church activities also have priority on our family calendar, but if we could humbly encourage you to carve out just this ONE 2-hour stretch of time each month, we know you will walk away with a full heart and renewed energy. Ask your husband, your mom, your neighbor, an older child, or a friend if they could help you guard this time by shuttling the kids to soccer practice, baseball games, AWANA, or Youth Group — we guarantee it will be well worth the effort.
WHAT TO BRING: For our guided Nature/Art Journaling sessions, you are welcome to bring a sketchbook (mixed media or watercolor paper), and any specific paint, pens, or pencils you like, but they are not required and we’ll have everything you need! We do ask that each attendee consider purchasing a drink from Coffee Connections as the owners of this establishment have graciously offered their space free of charge to our community for years.
One final note, nursing babies are always welcome at our Mama Gatherings and are often passed around for snuggles and knee-bounces.
POLICY REMINDER: Please make sure you have read through all our policies found at the bottom of the front porch home page before attending an event.
