PURPOSE:

To join in community, invoking the essence of peace, which is a deep awareness of the truth. To share this gift we have with others, bringing together our differences in the creation of communal mandalas. Through  the purpose of loving ourselves and others, the act of drawing helps to  infuse the world with a sense of peace. By giving away the mandalas at the end, to whomever or whatever group we choose, we offer this to others.

Description of the Workshop:
Using the aid of a circular map of how consciousness moves into the world, (sand mandalas by Tibetans and other cultures) we  create communal mandalas to give to Syrian refugees or to any group in need of support. No art experience is necessary. Whether professional artist or complete beginner-if you can draw a stick figure with a crayon-you can do this. Children have done it! It is more importantly about the participation and unfolding of energy.

We use  special fabric crayons, everyone working together on a large circular paper. Later, we iron the finished image onto a white sheet to create a banner. You will be guided step by step with visualizations and instructions in this creation. For more details click here. Please join us in this awakening to love.
