Jen Volansky encourages participants to slow down, explore, and connect. This class centers on discovery and creative play, inviting you to work with different materials and techniques, following what interests you, noticing what shows up, and letting the experience unfold.

You’ll be guided through processes that invite curiosity, experimentation, and staying present with whatever is in front of you with room to try things out and see where your art making leads.

You’ll end the class with your creations, a sense of calm, a bit of fun, and insight to carry into your week.

We’ll turn our mixed‑media pages into easy handmade mini‑books, filled with color, little cut papers, and tiny reflections.

Playful, peaceful, and full of tiny surprises.
