New Years Day at CRAFT!

Start the year by exploring how you want it to feel. In this gentle watercolor session,
you’ll create a personal color palette and paint an abstract “map” using simple shapes,
layers, and pathways. We’ll finish by folding a small mini zine with prompts you can return
to throughout the year.

Reflective and intuitive — no goal-setting, no pressure, and no prior art experience needed.

• A watercolor color-palette page
• One abstract “color map” painting
• A handmade mini zine for reflection

This workshop focuses on creating a few intentional journal pages you can return to
throughout the year. We’ll work with layout, handwriting, collage, and simple mark-making
to build structured spreads that support reflection and steadiness.

You’ll complete 3–4 guided spreads, including:

• Letting go / stepping toward
• A soft intentions page
• A support systems page
• An optional permission statement for the year ahead

Beginner-friendly and calm.

This session offers a more expansive take on classic vision boarding. Using the materials
of CRAFT’s all-you-can-make buffet — vintage magazines and books, paper ephemera, texture,
color, and found elements like beads and keys — you’ll create a collage-based vision board
that reflects how you want the year ahead to feel.

Gentle prompts will help guide the process, with an emphasis on reflection and personal
meaning rather than goal-setting or aesthetics. All materials are provided, and no prior
experience is required.

• One completed vision board
• A set of prompts for revisiting or updating it over time
