The focus is not upon the finished work but upon the experience of discovery and making art. \nIn the workshop\, after two or three hours\, the group gathers to discuss what has been created.  The purpose of the discussion is to help each person recognize the beauty in their work. Or\, in the words of Ann O’Hanlon\, our purpose is “to look upon a seemingly random work of our own with interest” and with “the same fulfillment… experienced on an unknown wilderness trail.” \nSundays\, 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.\n$55\, $44 OHCA members\, \n$10 materials fee paid to instructor at day of class \n7 people MAX (online registration closes at 3:00pm the prior Friday)\nParticipants must be fully vaccinated and wear masks. \nART DETAIL: JANET GREENWOOD \n  \n\n  \n \nAbout Candis Cousins \nCandis Cousins first came to the Center in 1972. Ann O’Hanlon was alive and at that time the Center was called ‘Sight and Insight.’ On Candis’ first day\, Ann’s suggestion for working was this: “Every decision you make\, try to make the wrong decision.” \nIn 2002\, Candis returned to OHCA to join the mono printing group led by Cayen Robertson and Karen Cox. In her own work\, Candis tries to keep moving forward without a plan\, just to see what comes. \n“It is such an invigorating\, soul-finding experience to facilitate this workshop. A love-fest\, a laugh-fest on the high seas of creativity!”\n– Candis \n\n  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/monoprinting-w-candis-cousins-5/ LOCATION:O’Hanlon Center for the Arts CATEGORIES:Visual Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230520T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230520T163000 DTSTAMP:20260410T150029 CREATED:20230422T170954Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230422T170954Z UID:20001237-1684585800-1684600200@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Art is a Way of Knowing (on Zoom) w/ PEGGY LILIENTHAL LINDEN DESCRIPTION:Art is a means to enter\, to play with\, to dance with\, to wrestle with anything that intrigues\, delights\, disturbs or terrifies us.\n– PAT B. ALLEN\, introduction\, Art Is a Spiritual Path \nThis short series of drop-in classes offers a space for art making as personal inquiry. Using journaling and art making we open to our “‘Creative Source.” Total beginners and experienced artists are welcome. Please have art making materials of your choice and a journal for the workshop. \nThe session will provide the setting for you to explore your own creative work. This is a time to be open to exploring\, adventuring\, trying something new (or old)\, and expressing your intuition\, imagination\, thoughts or beliefs. From past sessions participants have reported an expanded a sense of clarity\, expressing themselves more creatively\, and increased insight into themselves.\n\n \n“Art is a way of Knowing”\, an insightful class led by Peggy Linden\, has given me an opportunity to explore and expand my artistic abilities and perceptions. Having four hours to work and interface with a group of gifted individuals (via zoom) engages me with new creative energy and ideas that I wouldn’t have working alone.  Peggy is an experienced guide for this enriching workshop.” – Workshop Participant. \nThis Zoom workshop is for 10 people max.  Meets on Zoom one day per month (Date/time may vary – Check calendar listing for specifics)\n \n  \n$40\, $32 OHCA members\, per session \nPeggy will send you the invite link 2 hours before start of zoom.  Check your email.  Time is Pacific Time so add 3 hours if in East Coast. \n  \n  \nPlease read Zoom prerequisite before signing up.* \n*Participants should be familiar with Zoom – how to use the chat\, how to mute and un-mute\, how to toggle between video and audio only. Ensuring your web-cam and microphone are working beforehand is essential. Having earbuds or a headset is helpful if you don’t have a private space from which to participate. \nParticipants need to provide their own art materials and a journal. Take time to create a sacred space\, comfortable and free from distractions. Having a water bottle at hand is helpful. Art materials can be really simple or elaborate. It is a great practice to improvise with what is available. \nIt is requested that participants stay until the end of the session in order to preserve the “alchemical container”. Sharing words and images at the end of the session is an important part of the practice. When we create a group “field” together\, the words or imagery that arise for any one person may have important meaning for other members of the group. The more we practice together the more connection and synchronicity we invite. \n  \n\n  \nPEGGY LINDEN – Embodiment Coaching: Combining Coaching\, Creativity & the Body \nBiography \nPeggy Linden studied with and was mentored by Ann O’Hanlon during her 20’s and 30’s and this launched her into the world of art. Peggy had the privilege of being invited to Ann’s cabin at Lake Tahoe for a week at a time on two separate occasions where all she was ‘allowed to do’ was paint all day on Ann’s deck. \nPeggy also studied with Josef Albers and Josep Grau-Garigga. Peggy’s mother was Windy Lilienthal\, the fiber-artist. They attended Ann’s workshops together. Peggy’s former husband\, David Linden was the attorney who incorporated the O’Hanlon Center for the Arts. \nPeggy combines her career as a CranioSacral Therapist (a hands-on-healing modality) with her work as a Certified Resilient Leadership Coach and an artist. Her Visual Journaling Art Workshops have elements of coaching built into them\, while also using body awareness for grounding. \nPeggy holds a Masters in Adult Education and has completed a majority of all classes for her PH.D. \n  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/art-is-a-way-of-knowing-on-zoom-w-peggy-lilienthal-linden-3/ CATEGORIES:Visual Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230520T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230520T140000 DTSTAMP:20260410T150029 CREATED:20230424T230515Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230426T205627Z UID:20001270-1684576800-1684591200@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Special Saturday Workshop w/ the Exquisite Garden Art Collaborative DESCRIPTION:In lieu of Saturday Perception on this date\, we will host a special event.\nCelebrating collaboration and our Working Together call for art\, O’Hanlon Center has invited the Exquisite Garden Art Collaborative to work with them on a project – a 6×8 foot collaborative painting! \nJoe Brubaker\, local Marin artist\, formed the Exquisite Garden about twenty years ago.

It breeds excitement and enjoyment of the process. \nI like the mix of people and their art. \nIt is free and fun. \nI like that I can get into the flow of art and forget the stressful world. \nI look forward to stepping into another time and place. It is a magical experience to visit this special piece of land at the foot of Mt Tam. \nBeing with people who care about art and artists is something I find worthwhile. I feel lucky to have discovered this class. It informs me well beyond 4 hours on Saturday. \nThis Saturday workshop serves as a tool to open up all of my senses and I  come alive. \nThe setting is gorgeous and serene. \nI love Saturday class. I wouldn’t think of missing it. I come every Saturday\, and have for years and years.

The focus is not upon the finished work but upon the experience of discovery and making art. \nIn the workshop\, after two or three hours\, the group gathers to discuss what has been created.  The purpose of the discussion is to help each person recognize the beauty in their work. Or\, in the words of Ann O’Hanlon\, our purpose is “to look upon a seemingly random work of our own with interest” and with “the same fulfillment… experienced on an unknown wilderness trail.” \nSundays\, 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.\n$55\, $44 OHCA members\, \n$10 materials fee paid to instructor at day of class \n8 people MAX (online registration closes at 3:00pm the prior Friday)\nParticipants must be fully vaccinated and wear masks. \nART DETAIL: JANET GREENWOOD \n  \n\n  \n \nAbout Candis Cousins \nCandis Cousins first came to the Center in 1972. Ann O’Hanlon was alive and at that time the Center was called ‘Sight and Insight.’ On Candis’ first day\, Ann’s suggestion for working was this: “Every decision you make\, try to make the wrong decision.” \nIn 2002\, Candis returned to OHCA to join the mono printing group led by Cayen Robertson and Karen Cox. In her own work\, Candis tries to keep moving forward without a plan\, just to see what comes. \n“It is such an invigorating\, soul-finding experience to facilitate this workshop. A love-fest\, a laugh-fest on the high seas of creativity!”\n– Candis\n  \n\n  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/monoprinting-w-candis-cousins-4/ LOCATION:O’Hanlon Center for the Arts CATEGORIES:Visual Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230506T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230506T140000 DTSTAMP:20260410T150030 CREATED:20230405T000016Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231219T010746Z UID:20001196-1683367200-1683381600@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Saturday Perception Workshop DESCRIPTION:One of the core principles Ann O’Hanlon stressed was learning how to seeFor over 35 years – Saturdays have been a time to put that into practice.

It breeds excitement and enjoyment of the process. \nI like the mix of people and their art. \nIt is free and fun. \nI like that I can get into the flow of art and forget the stressful world. \nI look forward to stepping into another time and place. It is a magical experience to visit this special piece of land at the foot of Mt Tam. \nBeing with people who care about art and artists is something I find worthwhile. I feel lucky to have discovered this class. It informs me well beyond 4 hours on Saturday. \nThis Saturday workshop serves as a tool to open up all of my senses and I  come alive. \nThe setting is gorgeous and serene. \nI love Saturday class. I wouldn’t think of missing it. I come every Saturday\, and have for years and years.
