Join us for a gentle introduction to the Zentangles, a mindful drawing technique that combines repetition, flow, and focus to create intricate designs. No experience needed, just a willingness to slow down and explore.<\/p>\n

Zentangle is less about the outcome and more about the process. As we draw, we\u2019ll explore how creative attention can deepen presence, ease anxiety, and connect us to ourselves and each other in meaningful ways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
