About this program
Grades 2-12
Mandalas are an ancient artistic technique used in many cultures around the world to represent the Universe. After showing examples from different cultures around the world, Claudia will guide older students (2-12) through the creation of their own, unique Mandalas using geometry, symbols, and patterns. Students will explore artistic techniques like stippling, cross-hatching, blending and layering while learning about volume, balance, movement and contrast. This self-expression workshop is an active meditation. Explore mindfulness.
Grades K-1
Inspired by images of flowers, plants, fruits, insects, and landscapes that showcase Mother Nature as “my favourite artist”, younger (K-1) students will first learn to appreciate beauty, detail, colour, contrast, symmetry, and patterns in nature. Then, Claudia will guide them through the creation of their unique design while talking bout Mother Nature and the way she creates beauty.
