Join us for an innovative, virtual Ride the Wave series with Sarah Johnson. This interactive program typically meets in person, and offers an opportunity to play with art materials, explore the connections between creativity and health, and explore what it means to "ride the wave." The thought-provoking experiential activities are designed to encourage connections with ourselves and other humans. 

In order to offer this program safely for all, we are switching up the format. On Saturday, July 18 from 10:00-11:00AM, participants will meet virtually with Sarah Johnson via zoom, for introductions, a mindful practice, and to get instructions. Inspiration materials from Mark Herman's exhibition Landmarks will be mailed to participants ahead of July 18. Participants will be challenged to create a piece of art with materials they have on hand already (more direction will come during the virtual workshop). Participants will have one week to play with the art materials, and will reconvene on Saturday July 25, from 10:00-11:00AM, to share their work and to share a concluding mindful practice.

Sarah Johnson is a Winonan and human who uses art as a means for healing in many aspects of her life, both professionally and personally. Sarah is trained as a therapist and as an artist who works to make connections with and empower others.

This event is free thanks to the generous support of Ernest and Sally Micek in memory of W.B. "Bill" Gautch.
