Join us for this special in-person Create Night celebrating the Being Well Initiative!
Dive deep into Shelagh Keeley’s exhibition Drawn to Place with artist and art therapist Laura Menucci, a PEM partner who previously took part in our February School Vacation Week programming. You’ll learn how to mindfully observe an artwork and engage in community-based discussion. Then, Menucci will lead guided mixed media art making in response to Drawn to Place. This all-ages session opens with refreshments and mingling at 6:30 pm.
Mindful Making with Laura Menucci is a new program addition to the Being Well Initiative. These creative community sessions led by an art therapist guide participants in deep engagement with featured works from PEM’s collections through exploration, creation and discussion. Stay tuned for more Mindful Making sessions!
