Are you a Creator or Founder? Come unwind, mingle, and paint alongside fellow creatives in a restorative painting session! It’s the perfect low-pressure activity to be in space with entrepreneur-minded folks in Boston to gather inspiration, discuss experiences, and connect!
This workshop is an opportunity for Creators and Founders to take a step back from the stress of running a brand and creative blockage. Designed to be semi-guided, your instructor and artist behind AIRI Jewelry & Gallery, Maya, will provide just the right amount of instruction to keep you inspired. We provide all of the acrylic paint supplies, floral props, and crystals you’ll need to tap into your creative and mindful energy. The Local Hand will also have light refreshments during the session.
What to expect:
- Using acrylics as a painting medium to decompress and restore
- A very playful and fun paint sesh charged by crystals a
- Networking and connecting with cool creatives around Boston
- A social and non-competitive space
- Having creative freedom and going at your own pace
- Individualized guidance, recommendations, and encouragement
The goal is to leave with a piece of work and a peace of mind—feeling inspired and lighter. You might even leave with a new friend or two (but no pressure).
About your instructor: Maya Alia, local artisan and Founder of AIRI, is a self-taught artist passionate about using art as a mindful practice.
