Rock Mandala Painting for the Whole Family at Prairiewoods
<p>Spend a few hours creating art with your favorite people! Join facilitator Andi Lewis at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) for a fun time together as we learn the art of rock painting with mandalas, which are sacred works of art in the form of a circle. Using smooth stones, paints and fine dotting tools, we will make beautiful, detailed mandalas. This is a fun, relaxing process that can be done by anyone, regardless of age. We will have time to paint several rocks and will be encouraged to take one rock home and leave one as a secret gift for a stranger to find. No experience or artistic skill is necessary, but kids 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. (It is ideal for ages 10 and older.) This program usually fills up early, so register today! The cost is $13 and includes rocks and all art supplies. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2022-08-14 14:00:00 -0500
