SUMMARY:Drawing Zentangle Inspired Mandalas
CATEGORIES:event
DESCRIPTION:Drawing Zentangle Inspired Mandalas Join Becky Boynton this Fall as she returns for another offering of Zentangle®! Becky, a Certified Zentangle Teacher, is excited to guide others in learning this step-by-step method that can expand your sense of being creative and positively contribute to your overall experience of well-being. You are invited and encouraged to participate in this upcoming program whether you have never “tangled” before or if you do have prior experience with Zentangle. The Zentangle® Method is a simple, relaxing, fun way to create beautiful abstract designs by drawing structured patterns. Participants only need paper, pencil, a black fine line pen and some Q-Tips or other blending tool. No previous skills or experience are needed; just a willingness to put pen to paper. There are no mistakes in Zentangle; this is meant to be relaxing. While the process may look intricate, it is a deceptively simple pathway to improve your well-being. In addition to verbal instructions, you will receive handouts before class that will assist you in following Becky’s live video demonstrations. The benefits of Zentangle are numerous and include increased confidence, relaxation, and inspiration. This practice also enhances focus, heightens mindfulness, and fosters a deeper sense of meaningfulness on a spiritual level. Beginners are often quite surprised and pleased at what they create. “Anything is possible one stroke at a time.” That is the Zentangle tag line. In each class, Becky will use the Zentangle method and patterns to draw a mandala. Mandalas are usually circles filled with symmetrical and repeating geometric shapes. They date back to at least the 4th century B.C. and can be found in religious ceremonies, meditation practices, home décor, on clothing, and even tattoos. Participants are encouraged to follow the instructions as demonstrated or “go rogue” and deviate slightly or widely from Becky’s planned mandala. Each of the sessions is suited to first-time tanglers as well as those with experience. The sessions stand alone, so participation in all three is not necessary. Additionally, for the first time, the sessions will be recorded. If you register and are unable to attend for some reason, we can send you the recording after the sessions. A copy of the recording will also be sent to everyone who attends.<br DATES & TIMES: · Tuesday, September 17th from 7:00 - 8:30 PM ET · Thursday, September 26th from 10:00 - 11:30 AM ET · Sunday, September 29th from 4:00 - 5:30 PM ET COST: $25 per session or$60 for all three sessions LOCATION: ZOOM IMPORTANT: You will receive an email from lorie@wellforthejourney.org at least 24 hours in advance of the start of your program.

FACILITATOR: Becky Boynton FACILITATOR BIO: Becky Boynton taught elementary school for 27 years in Virginia and Maryland, in both public and private schools. Most recently she served as the Service-Learning Coordinator at the Friends School of Baltimore. A longtime volunteer at a food pantry and financial assistance center in Baltimore, she now volunteers teaching Zentangle® on Zoom. She was first introduced to Zentangle in 2012 and has been tangling ever since. In 2018 she became a CZT (Certified Zentangle Teacher) by attending the four-day training program in Providence, RI. She has been teaching Zentangle® since 2018. Before Zentangle® she considered herself a crafter, not an artist. Zentangle® has changed that. This step-by-step method is easy to learn, relaxing and a fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. It increases focus and creativity. She enjoys bringing this technique to those who do not see themselves as capable of creating art. She is now a firm believer that, as the creators of Zentangle® say, “Anything is possible, one stroke at a time. ™” Becky returns to The Well having taught in person and Zoom Zentangle classes for us since 2020. CANCELLATION POLICY: We recognize that sometimes plans change and you may not be able to attend a program for which you are registered. On rare occasions, the Well may also need to cancel or reschedule a program. Both situations are disappointing, but we are prepared with the following options. If a program is cancelled by Well for the Journey, or rescheduled and you cannot make the new date, a full refund will be provided to you. For programs with pre-scheduled Inclement Weather Dates, refunds will be provided only if both the original scheduled date and the planned Weather Date are cancelled. If you are unable to attend a program for which you are registered, you may gift your ticket to another party. Please notify the Well with your request at kristan@wellforthejourney.org and provide the name, mailing address, and email address of the person who is taking your place at the program. If you cancel your registration 72 hours or more prior to the program start time, you may request a refund up to 50% of the program fee or request that your 50% refund be donated to the Well’s Scholarship Fund. Please contact the Well with your request at kristan@wellforthejourney.org . Refunds are not available for cancellations when notification is received by the Well in less than 72 hours prior to the start of the program so that sufficient funds are available to cover the Well’s administrative expenses. We sincerely appreciate your consideration of the time and effort that the Well and your Facilitator put forth in bringing your program to life and thank you for your understanding of our Cancellation Policy.
