Crafts for the Curious: Mini Zen Gardens

Join us in the Great Hall for a series of unique crafts for adults. These crafts are perfect for individuals with and without artistic inclination- all you need is your curiosity!

The practice of full-scale zen gardens has been done for centuries, and these landscapes are designed to imitate nature’s tranquility. In this final session of our series, we will be creating mini zen gardens. These miniature gardens, perfect for a desk or workspace, originated in Japan and are intended to create a peaceful environment for reflection and meditation. We’ll assemble our gardens together and discuss various mindfulness techniques.

If you have a favorite stone or small item that you would like to build into your zen garden, feel free to bring it. All other supplies will be provided. Please note that we are not creating fairy gardens or using live plants.

Limited to 16 adults, registration required. Light refreshments will be served.
