Celebrating 50 days of school with a dose of creativity! ✨

We had a great time teaming up with P.S. ARTS and Palisades Elementary School for a special lunchtime art break. It was inspiring to see so many friends let their imaginations flow and create in community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and here’s to many more days of learning, growing, and creating together!🧡

🌀 Let’s Do Nothing Together: Labyrinths & Pathways

Mosaics Workshop: Broken to Beautiful — a two-part series with Kate Samuels.

Learn the full mosaic process from start to finish — cutting, designing, gluing, and grouting — while creating a 6”x10” wooden board featuring an owl, a symbol of rising from the ashes. No prior art experience needed, just a willingness to cut, place, and see what emerges.

📅 Session 1 (Oct 10): Cutting, Design & Gluing
📅 Session 2 (Oct 17): Gluing & Grouting
🗓️ Both Saturdays | 12:00–4:00pm

Attendees must attend both sessions to complete the piece — this is a sequential series, not stand-alone drop-ins. All materials provided.

Facilitated by Kate Samuels, a retired teacher and mosaic artist who lost her home and studio in the 2025 Pali Bowl fire. For teens & adults impacted by the fires.

Soundbath for Peaceful Relaxation — a free wellness event with Jess Lakin.

Join us for a calming sound bath where the mind softens, the body unwinds, and the breath naturally slows. Through the resonant vibrations of gongs, Tibetan bowls, crystal singing bowls, and chimes, you’ll be guided into a meditative soundscape that supports deep relaxation and reconnection — a gentle pause to restore balance during a time of healing.

For adults & teens (14+) impacted by the fires — no experience necessary. Bring a yoga mat and extra blankets to stay cozy!

🗓️ Friday, October 9 | 6:00–7:00pm
📍 3212 Nebraska Ave, Santa Monica

🌀 Let’s Do Nothing Together: Playful Pausing — a sensory rest experience for adults.

A gentle session of organic mark-making with rolling stones, surprising objects, and simple drawing materials — paired with easy movement and zenifying soundscapes. No expectations, no pressure, no right way to do it. Just the freedom of being delightfully unproductive.

The body can settle. The mind can rest. Space to BE.

🗓️ Friday, September 25 | 6:00–7:30pm

All materials provided. Facilitated by Marni Gittleman, MS Ed, RYT. Open to individuals impacted by the 2025 LA wildfires.
