Draw it out - Drawing for wellness workshop

Cheryl Corrado from Inverlochy Art School

Join us at the historic Inverlochy House for a DRAW IT OUT drawing for wellness workshop. Practice the ‘art’ of drawing and writing for wellness. This 1.5 hour workshop takes you through guided cues (similar to meditation or journaling) to draw out where you are at, draw out how you are feeling, and draw out your own inner guidance. This workshop's focus is on guided drawings that draw on nature to reveal where we are and what we need.


No drawing skills required, this is more mark making not art making.

We all have the resources within to guide us, this workshop creates the space to access this by using a modality called Interactive Drawing Therapy. Facilitated by Lara Phillips, this is not therapy rather drawing for wellness; a guided workshop to build one’s relationship with oneself, to strengthen self-reflection and self-care.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
