Layers of Dreams is a seven-week online mixed media art workshop programme exploring, dreams, symbolism, identity, belonging and creativity.

Dreams often speak in fragments, colours, sensations, symbols and stories. Through gentle creative invitations, we will use mixed media artmaking as a way of reflecting on our inner worlds and connecting with others.

No previous art experience necessary and there is no expectation to remember your dreams. Open to anyone in the Highland region. Join from the comfort of your own home.


Wednesdays, 4:00pm – 6:30pm

Zoom
The sessions are held in small groups to help people feel comfortable and at ease. Participants are welcome to take breaks at any time during the session. Guidance materials will be sent ahead of the sessions starting. These sessions at not art therapy, but creative sessions focused on wellbeing and self expression as a positive safe space.
