Campus moves a little differently in the summer. It’s the perfect time to take a breath, touch some grass, and join us for a relaxing screen-free hour of drawing outside.

Seasoned sketchers are welcome, but if you haven’t drawn since elementary school...? No problem! This session isn’t about being “good” but rather about practicing mindfulness, embracing the idea of process over perfection, and building community as you reconnect with nature and your own creativity.

Bring your own drawing supplies or choose from ours. We’ll meet at C4C: The Understory before moving out to the Cathedral lawn. In case of rain, we’ll stay indoors for some cozy still life drawing with foraged natural materials.

Facilitated by Chloe Baierl, Center for Creativity
