Mandala Weaving Workshop

Tap into your creativity and discover the mindful art of yarn mandala weaving—vibrant geometric designs made with yarn and sticks. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn to create your own 6- or 8-pointed mandala while exploring colour, shape, and symmetry. No experience is needed, and instructions are available in both English and Spanish.

All materials are provided, including step-by-step guidance, a printed handout with a brief history of mandala weaving across cultures, and light snacks. You’ll leave with a finished woven wall art to take home, plus the skills and supplies to continue weaving on your own.

Tickets: $40 / $50 / $60 (sliding scale) Limited spots available.
