SUMMARY:Kid's Art: Charm Frame Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to dive into color\, sparkle\, and creativity! In this hands-on workshop\, every child will design and decorate a one-of-a-kind photo frame. Using bright resin charms\, shimmering glitter\, and playful embellishments\, each participant will bring their imagination to life – one detail at a time. \nTo start\, every child receives a small blank frame\, just waiting to be transformed. Then\, step by step\, that simple frame becomes something extraordinary. As the decorating begins\, creativity takes over. Little artists choose their own colors\, textures\, and materials. With every charm added and every sprinkle of glitter\, their unique personalities shine through. \nThroughout the session\, friendly guidance is always available. However\, each child is encouraged to explore freely\, experiment boldly\, and express their personal style. Because there are endless ways to combine materials\, no two creations will ever look the same. Every frame tells its own story – colorful\, joyful\, and completely original. \nMoreover\, the finished photo frame can become anything you wish. It might be a heartfelt gift for a friend\, a surprise for a family member\, or a special keepsake to display proudly at home. Either way\, it’s a beautiful reminder of creativity in action. \nBest of all\, all supplies are provided. Kids only need to bring curiosity\, imagination\, and enthusiasm. By the end of the workshop\, each participant will walk away with a handcrafted frame bursting with personality. \nSo come ready to design\, decorate\, and discover the fun of making something truly your own. In just one session\, your blank frame will transform into a sparkling\, handmade masterpiece – ready to hold a favorite photo and a lasting memory. \nAges 9 – 12

SUMMARY:Moving Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Come Home to Yourself: A Creative Embodiment Workshop\nTake time to reconnect with your inner wisdom. In this 90-minute moving meditation workshop\, we’ll explore the healing power of writing\, movement\, art\, and connection. \nYou’ll move through a gentle\, yet powerful journey. First\, we’ll begin with reflective journaling. Then\, we’ll shift into 5Rhythms-inspired dance. After that\, you’ll engage in intuitive art-making. Finally\, we’ll come together in heartfelt conversation. \nEach part supports you in slowing down and turning inward. Whether you’re feeling disconnected\, creatively stuck\, or simply need a pause\, this space is here for you. One breath. One expression. One step at a time. \nNo experience is needed – just your body\, your breath\, and a willingness to explore. \nThis is a space for authenticity and curiosity. It’s a place where real connection happens\, your voice is heard\, and your truth is welcome. Sign up for moving meditation today! \nAbout Your Guide: Julie Greenberg \nJulie Greenberg is the founder of Creative Awakening and a passionate guide who uses embodiment\, Human Design\, and self-expression to help others reconnect with who they are and what matters most.
