Slow down and create. Creativity • meditation • tranquility.

One Sunday a month, Nan Tien Art Gallery invites you to step out of the rush and spend a whole day making art, mindfully. Set within the serene grounds of Nan Tien, each retreat weaves gentle, guided art-making with meditation, introduction of , and quiet time in the gardens.

Each month explores a different art form with a featured artist — from mindful drawing and watercolour to clay, calligraphy and more. Alongside the art, each retreat introduces a different meditation practice — tea meditation, coffee meditation, walking meditation and more — a simple ritual of presence you can carry into everyday life. The day follows the same unhurried rhythm throughout: settle and breathe, look slowly, create, rest, create again, and share as much or as little as you wish.

No art or meditation experience is needed — the day is about presence, not perfection. All materials are included.

Lunch is not included — the on-site café offers a range of vegetarian meals during the lunch break.

Ages 16+, all welcome.

Places are limited to 20, so early booking is recommended.
