No Rules Art Journaling

Teaching Artist: Kat Sjogren

Using a variety of art materials, including vintage papers, stamps, and magazines, participants explore creative self-expression in a relaxed, supportive environment. There are no rules, no artistic experience needed, and no pressure to create a finished product—just space to play, reflect, and create! Art journaling can be used as a calming, self-regulating practice and a private way to process thoughts, emotions, and everyday experiences. Teaching artist Kat Sjogren guides participants through mixed media techniques while encouraging personal creativity and exploration. This relaxed, welcoming workshop is designed to help relieve stress and reconnect with creativity through the simple act of making something. What you end up with is entirely your own: a small, meaningful reflection of that moment in time.
