🎨 THE ART OF HOLDING SPACE

A donation-based online creative sanctuary
Mondays, 7:30–9:00pm AEST | Live on Google Meet

What if Monday evenings could be a soft place to land?
A ritual. A return. A reweaving.

The Art of Holding Space is a 90-minute creative sanctuary held every two weeks for those craving connection, emotional expression, and gentle self-exploration through art.

Rooted in compassion, curiosity, and the wisdom of your inner world, these sessions invite you to show up just as you are. No art experience needed! Just your presence, a few materials, and a willingness to create.

🌙 Why Mondays?

Mondays are ruled by the Moon — the planetary goddess of emotion, intuition, and reflection.
We gather at the threshold of the week to begin with intention, creativity, and care.

✨ What to Expect

Grounding and arrival
A symbolic or expressive art invitation (30–40 mins of art-making)
Connection (an exploration of our creation and process, with optional sharing in dyads or group)
A soft closing and integration ritual

💌 Why We Gather:

To build ritual. To reconnect with soul. To create without pressure. To be held in community.

🌈 What to Bring

Arts Journal (e.g., watercolour or mixed-media paper, A4 or A3)
A blend of art materials ( e.g., watercolours, coloured pencils, crayons, markers, oil pastels, acrylics, collage bits)
A quiet space, a warm cup of tea, and maybe a candle
Curiosity
