SUMMARY:Introduction to Abstract Art with Émilie Dubois
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Émilie Dubois\, currently exhibiting Home Is Not a Place in the Annex Gallery\, for an engaging introduction to abstract art. \n  \nIn this hands-on workshop\, participants will explore how colour\, gesture\, texture\, and composition can communicate emotion beyond representation. Through guided exercises using acrylic and mixed media\, Émilie will introduce key principles of abstraction while encouraging experimentation and intuitive mark-making. \n  \nFocusing on process rather than perfection\, the session invites participants to move beyond “what it looks like” and instead consider how painting can express memory\, atmosphere\, and inner experience. With personalized guidance throughout\, each participant will begin to develop their own visual language and a deeper understanding of abstract practice. \n  \nSuitable for beginners and those looking to expand their creative approach\, this workshop offers a supportive space for exploration and artistic discovery.

SUMMARY:From My Sleeve: A Postcard Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A reflective and intimate writing workshop inviting participants to explore their thoughts through postcard-based prompts inspired by artworks. \n  \nBeginning with a short introduction to the exhibitions\, participants will engage in guided free-writing while creating their own postcards using materials provided during the session. The workshop encourages honest\, unfiltered expression in a relaxed and supportive environment. \n  \nThe session concludes with an optional sharing circle\, offering a space for participants to read\, listen\, and connect through writing. Open to all levels\, this experience focuses on self-expression rather than technique\, creating a meaningful dialogue between art and personal reflection.
