Make Art From Mistakes and Imagination! Single Session Creativity Growth Mindset
In this fun, creative single-session art class, there are no mistakes, only potential! Students will create highly individualized art based on simple prompts, embracing flexible thinking as they see what happenswhen imagination reigns free!
Class Experience

We will start by looking at a few pages of the book Beautiful Oops, which highlights the beauty in using your imagination to overcome mistakes or to kick-start new ideas.
