Gratitude + Art Workshop | Palisades Branch Library
Los Angeles Public Library, which includes Palisades Branch Library, will host a two-part virtual workshop series for young adults ages 15 to 24 on Thursday, August 5, and Thursday, August 12, at 4 p.m. The series will focus on how to destress through gratitude and art.
“This workshop will provide an overview of the benefits of practicing gratitude and encourage participants to create art or written work inspired by the things they are grateful for,” YA Librarian Jessica Levy shared. “There will be time during each session to create and share with others. There may also be an opportunity to have the artwork displayed in the library.”
Those who participate should have materials on hand to be used during the series—for example, those who wish to paint should have paint colors and brushes, and those who wish to write should have a pen and paper.
The two sessions will be led by a college-aged library apprentice who is a creative writer. Those who wish to attend should email Levy at jlevy@lapl.org with their full name and age.
