Workshops
Gayndah Development Association's 'Bluebird (of Happiness) Art' Workshops
Gayndah Development Association's 'Bluebird (of Happiness) Art' sessions begin this month at the Gayndah Art Gallery.
The 2 hour art therapy sessions tailored to adults are open to anyone aged from 18 to 98 and include fun mindset exercises to start each workshop followed by an art/craft activity.
The focus of the workshops is to provide a cheerful space for well-being which combine ways to tap into a positive headspace, alongside creativity, conversation and community in an uplifting and welcoming setting.
The meet ups are provided via sponsorship from the Queensland Mental Health Commission & will be delivered by Arts North Burnett, and are supported by Gayndah Art Gallery.
There will be room for 15 participants at each session so prior bookings are required. Bookings/enquiries can be made via the gallery on
4140 8057 or gayndahgallery@gmail.com.
