Are you feeling exhausted from the ongoing stress of making sense of an uncertain world, managing physical distancing, and shifting social movements?
The social disconnection and mental health challenges are real, whether it be pandemic-related, or whether it’s the usual holiday tensions.
Gather your bubble friends or family for a creative date to refresh your heart with relaxed fun, inspiration, and connection.
You’re invited to make space for:
Creative Self Care
Show up for yourself and refresh your heart. Counterbalance the hard stuff of this present season with creative play and self expression.
Stress relief
Slow down and unplug for creative stress management tools, cultivating joy and gratitude. Cultivate calm reflection and self awareness.
Cultivating Relationships
Soothe social disconnection by gathering in real time with others in this intentional space for making memories and meaningful connections.
Choose Your Party Focus
Lettering Gratitude into your Heart
End a challenging year with intentional reflection, to gather the wisdom spoken to you. Write truth into your heart. Release the power of gratitude as you explore expressive lettering as a tool to recognize, honour, and cultivate all that is going on, both joyful and challenging. Be seen and heard in community as you share with one another the gifts of the past season.
intro to Faux Calligraphy
Overwhelmed where to begin your lettering journey? This workshop will give you the overview you need so you know exactly how to get started, pens, ink, and styles. Learn the basics of “faux calligraphy” using simple tools you already have. Create your own Christmas themed card.
Intro to brush calligraphy
Learn the very popular tool and style of brush script lettering with confidence. You’ll start with the basic strokes, then move to connecting them into letters, and words. You’ll create a simple greeting card with a short word or phrase.
What Others Are Saying
Justine sets a beautiful tone that immediately puts everyone at ease and allows you to relax and become present (not something I find easy normally!). She brings something rare, which is a safe space to connect with yourself and others, to experiment (and make mistakes!) with zero judgement, and to spend a few hours being blissfully mindful.
I needed a peaceful creative experience so badly. Justine’s warmth made everyone at ease and created a safe and welcoming learning environment. It was a beautiful experience how Justine connected our hearts and minds while teaching us creative skills. Justine has a gift.
Justine’s ability to make calligraphy feel accessible and fun to all skill levels, facilitate open conversation, and build a sense of connection among a group was so inspiring to see and learn from. She made a phenomenal workshop partner.
