Mangawhai Connect and Create Monthly Meet Up

You're invited to the Connect and Create Monthly Meet Up hosted by Creative Northland

Thursday 23rd October and Thursday 20th November

10am - 12pm

At Mangawhai Artists Workspace

Connect and Create Meetups are an informal and free opportunity for anyone aged 16+ to let their imagination run wild and to have some fun.

We all understand the power of play for children, yet we often forget to prioritise this in our busy adult lives. Alongside providing joy, research shows that creative play can help improve our wellbeing by reducing stress and soothing the nervous system.

Artists, hobbyists, crafters and even those who say "I don't have a creative bone in my body" are all welcome!

Each month art making resources are provided free of charge for you to experiment with or you can bring along your own personal project (a drawing, knitting, painting etc) to work on if you'd prefer.

Hosted by Kylee Newbold, Creative Northland's Kaipara Creative Advisor. Kylee is a colour loving creative based in Mangawhai. Her background is within Visual Arts Facilitation, with over 20 years experience supporting both rangatahi and adults to build their own art practices and strengthen wellbeing through creativity.
