Location: In-Person, Los Angeles, CA
Cost: $12.51-$40.25 (sliding scale, including ticket fees)
Come to one, two, or all three programs!
Consider that your acts of creativity go far beyond everything you’ll ever see or ever know.
If you think that only dramatic, revolutionary actions have an impact, you can overlook how simple gestures might change lives.
You wield more influence than you can imagine! In these three workshops, we’ll explore viewpoints about compassion, blessing, and community.
Using the Jewish Studio Process, a methodology combining practices from the field of art therapy with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning, we’ll strengthen the inherent creativity inside each and every one of us.
What do you think will happen if you’re more compassionate, more peaceful, and more resilient?
In this workshop:
• You'll use the creative practices of the Jewish Studio Process to expand your wisdom, understanding, connection, and renewal.
• You’ll learn a means of generating compassion to create waves of change, opportunity, challenge and will make you more resilient for these times.
• You’ll have an opportunity to come alive in a creative space with friends, some of whom you haven’t yet met.
• You'll experience a renewed sense of self, community, wonder, possibility, and peace.
We hope you'll join us IN-PERSON.
