Convinced you can’t draw? Carnegie Community Centre hosts Zentangle, a wonderful way to prove otherwise! There are no rules, no boundaries, no limitation—it is a simple way of using lines to create wonderful results. Zentangle is easy to do, easy to learn, relaxing, fun and a creative way to draw patterns, shapes and images. The possibilities to create with shapes and patterns are endless.
Participants of all ages and experience are welcome.
Donny Harrison is inspired and intrigued by the healing affects of making art, and studies psychoneuroimmunology–investigating how positive emotions brought on by making art can influence vital physiological mind-body connections. He is studying Psychology at SFU with a minor in First Nations studies and in 2015, plans to continue working on a master’s degree in counseling and a certificate in Art Therapy.
Carnegie Community Centre—often referred to as the living room of the Downtown Eastside—provides social, educational, cultural and recreational activities on-site, at nearby Oppenheimer Park and through an outreach team. The programs serve low income adults with the goal of nurturing mind, body, and spirit in a safe and welcoming environment.
Oppenheimer Park is a popular gathering place, which provides social, educational, recreational, and cultural programs and services to a diverse neighbourhood. The park provides space for neighbourhood events put on by other community groups, such as the Powell Street Festival and National Aboriginal Day.
