Workshop Details

The Esalen Art Barn is home base for this weekend of play, creativity, and celebration. Families will have the opportunity to explore, make art, and celebrate a renewed connection with each other. There will be space to connect as a family unit, and connect with the larger community. Special discussion for parents and those in the health professions will offer information on assisting children with self regulation utilizing dyadic regulation techniques, nature, and the arts. There will be visual arts activities, including making puppets, magic wands, painting, and more. Expressive arts such as yoga, dharma games, sports, night hikes, and exploring in nature are also shared. Families can journey through a magical space that brings together the natural California coast and the creativity that emerges when a group comes together.
This workshop is designed for families of all configurations, with children of all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult. If you have specific questions, please feel free to contact the workshop leader at ivymayer@yahoo.com.
