A weekend retreat for People who work with youth
Rowe values acceptance, creativity, respect, love, tranquility, transformation, returning home. Return home to yourself by creating artwork in a community setting. While working with youth, I saw the passion that educators bring to their work. Whether it is social emotional learning, academics, or mentorship, the dedication to create small and large changes in the lives of young people inspires me! I have also witnessed burnout and tension. The theme of the group is: Reflect and Refuel through the Arts. Writing, drawing, and gentle movement explorations will be used as a means to reflect on your work and refuel with new tools. We will use pastels and large format paper for drawing. Paper and writing utensils will be provided, feel free to bring your own notebook as well!
You will be served by this workshop if you want to bring arts into your education, mentoring, or therapeutic practice. You will be a good fit for this workshop if you are interested in learning more about the Tamalpa Institute’s visionary work and the potency of a multimodal arts approach that includes writing, drawing, and moving.
Reflect & Refuel is a series of seven classes that uses writing, drawing, and movement to promote well-being and reflection. Expressive arts of movement, drawing, and writing are powerful mediums for sharing, storytelling, and shaping how we perceive who we are. You will practice extending compassion to yourself and those around you by sharing your creative works with a group. This class is an opportunity for you to reflect on your life and find creative ways to refuel. Participants will harness their creativity to confidently and authentically present themselves to the world. Over the seven sessions, participants will utilize the Expressive Arts to get to know themselves and one another better. This is an opportunity for participants to reintroduce themselves in a creative and authentic way to a small audience. Embodying our stories with confidence can bring us closer to who and how we want to be in the world. No prior movement, drawing, or writing background needed.
