Get more comfortable and confident looking at, analyzing, and talking about art!

Museums include the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Walker Art Center, the Museum of Russian Art, and the Weisman Art Museum. Last class meets at the instructor's studio at the Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art in Minneapolis to debrief and discuss our museum experiences.

A41824 Art Journaling - The Stories We Tell Ourselves, Mondays, 1 - 4 p.m.
Instructor: Emily Niemeyer
Skill level: ALL

Guided, therapeutic expression through art can help us to deepen our understanding of the self-narratives we hold and support us to move alongside them with greater clarity and acceptance. Each week, we’ll pose new questions and themes to explore while trying out new mediums of visual expression. We’ll use our inner lives, past, present, and future as inspiration points. Combining Behavior Therapy with art-making, class time will include both reflection and art making. We will end each session by sharing how "arting it out" - whether representationally or abstractly - gives us more insight into some aspect of our stories or selves. Suggested materials list on the website.
