Explore, experiment, and discover your unique form of creative expression.
The Visual Perception workshops are hands-on creating with materials, experimenting, and discovering without dependence on technique. Participants are encouraged to pay attention to what you see, accept the marks you make, explore, experiment, and discover your unique form of creative expression.
A simple prompt or exercise is given at the beginning of class. Participants are free to elaborate on their initial efforts or do something else entirely.
We end the workshops with a gathering (coming together) of everyone and their work. Participants look, discuss, and value the work created.

Most materials are provided and/or bring your own.
$25 non-members | $20 OHCA members
Masking may be required. Bring a mask in case.

“Go into yourself and see how deep the place is from which your life flows.” Rainer Maria Rilke.
Drawing on mindfulness practices and Buddhist perspectives, we attend to the breath and present moment awareness, so that we may step back from inciting thoughts and emotions, loosen the grip of the past, and open to silence. Through these practices, the mind settles, and the heart opens and softens. We touch the inherent goodness within, cultivate compassion for self and others and learn to engage fully with life, no matter what comes our way.
Includes instruction, guided meditation and silent practice, poetry, readings, and writings.
Open to all. No prior meditation experience necessary. Participants are encouraged to attend every meeting to receive the benefit of regular practice within a supportive, spiritual community.

LOVING THE SATURDAY WORKSHOP
The long-running Visual Perception Workshop is at the heart of O’Hanlon Center. Recently we asked workshop participants for their thoughts.
I love doing art with friends…and then sharing it!
I love that it is a drop-in class andI don’t have to sign up ahead of time.
I like that I don’t have to know how to do art…It’s about our own creativity.
It is so much fun.
I love the creative atmosphere. It breeds excitement and enjoyment of the process.
I like the mix of people and their art.
It is free and fun.
I like that I can get into the flow of art and forget the stressful world.
I 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.
Being 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.
This Saturday workshop serves as a tool to open up all of my senses and I come alive.
The setting is gorgeous and serene.
I love Saturday class. I wouldn’t think of missing it. I come every Saturday, and have for years and years.
