Art and yoga are often treated like lifestyle luxuries.

But I’ve seen something different.

I’ve watched children sit beside older adults at the same table.

I’ve watched veterans soften.

I’ve watched people who thought they “weren’t creative” light up when given space and encouragement.

That’s why this project exists.

This project offers free, welcoming workshops where people can move gently, create with their hands, and be in a room where no one has to prove anything.

We begin with simple, accessible yoga — seated or standing, adaptable for every body. Then we transition into hands-on artmaking like collage, watercolor, or mixed media. All supplies are provided. No experience is needed.

These gatherings are not about performance.

They are not about perfection.

They are about slowing down.

Breathing.

Laughing.

Making something.

Being in a space where everyone belongs.

No one is turned away. There is no cost to participate.

For many families, older adults, and individuals with disabilities, financial and accessibility barriers can quietly limit access to creative and wellness spaces. These workshops remove those barriers and restore something essential: the opportunity to express, to breathe, and to feel part of a community.

Your support helps cover art materials, adaptive supplies, yoga props, space costs, and teaching time so these workshops can remain completely free and accessible.

Because creativity and care should not be reserved for the few.

They should be shared — across generations, abilities, and incomes.
