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.

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.” \nFirst and Third Sundays\, 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.\n$60 | $50 OHCA members + \n$10 materials fee paid to facilitator on day of workshop \n6 people MAX\n \nART DETAIL: JANET GREENWOOD\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  \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  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/monoprint-april-19/ 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:20260421T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260421T140000 DTSTAMP:20260406T105042 CREATED:20251124T081233Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260317T215937Z UID:20004460-1776765600-1776780000@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Tuesday Perception Workshop DESCRIPTION:Perception Workshops Description \nThe Perception Workshops at O’Hanlon welcome all artists and the art-curious.

These will be printed and prepared in advance so you’re ready to begin working as soon as the workshop starts. \nDuring the session\, we’ll cover essential materials\, where to source them\, and how to use them effectively. While you will be transferring onto paper and wood in class\, we will also discuss additional surface possibilities so you can continue experimenting on your own. \nFee: $275 Non-Members | $220 OHCA MembersMaterials Fee: $25 (payable to instructor) \nMaximum: 10 participants \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n About Margot Harford \nMargot’s work is a mixture of fine art photography\, photo transfers and collage.

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.

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.” \nFirst and Third Sundays\, 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.\n$60 | $50 OHCA members + \n$10 materials fee paid to facilitator on day of workshop \n7 people MAX\n \nART DETAIL: JANET GREENWOOD\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  \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  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/monoprint-may-3/ 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:20260505T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260505T140000 DTSTAMP:20260406T105042 CREATED:20251124T081233Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260317T215937Z UID:20004462-1777975200-1777989600@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Tuesday Perception Workshop DESCRIPTION:Perception Workshops Description \nThe Perception Workshops at O’Hanlon welcome all artists and the art-curious.

This class will encourage writing from personal experience in a variety of forms and lengths\, will introduce a range of narrative approaches\, and explore methods for developing a germ of memory into a substantial form. We will also consider the ethical concerns of taking liberty with “the facts” to enhance the story\, (or how much poetic license will the puritanical worm in your brain allow?) The instructor will introduce literary examples and offer prompts for in-class writing. Participants will be invited to share their in-class writing as well as their writing from home. \nIn addition to writing implements please bring memories and stories to the gathering. \n4 Wednesdays in May – 11 am to 1 pm \n$140\, $115 OHCA Members \nMax 8 participants \nPlease register here \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n About Bart: \nBart Schneider is the author of six novels\, including Blue Bossa\, a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize\, and Secret Love\, a New York Times Notable Book of the Year.

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. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The Collage Club: Cut\, Paste\, Create Together!\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n $25.00 – $30.00Price range: $25.00 through $30.00 \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n Member/Non-Member\n \n Choose an optionNon-memberOHCA MemberClear \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Saturday Perception Workshop | 2026 quantity\n \n \n\n Add to cart URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/saturday-perception/2026-05-16/ LOCATION:O’Hanlon Center for the Arts CATEGORIES:Visual Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
