Roberson has partnered with Zen Art Soul to bring an in-person lesson in the meditative art of Zentangle! The class will be hosted in a space where we can safely socially distance, while still being together. Class size is limited to 10 people. Registration is required and includes class, materials, and admission to Roberson Museum on Friday evening. Cost: $20 non-members $12 Roberson members Registration closed. All spots full.   What is Zentangle?The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn, fun and relaxing way to draw beautiful images by drawing structured patterns. Zentangle art is non-representational and unplanned so you can focus on each stroke and not worry about the result. You don’t need to know what a tangle is going to look like to draw it, you just need to know the steps. Structured patterns are called “tangles” and are drawn on small pieces of high quality paper called “tiles”. As you use the Zentangle Method to create beautiful images, you will experience increased focus, find your creativity, build self-confidence in your own creativity, and you may find an increased sense of well being. It is also a great way to take time for yourself to relax and reduce stress. The Zentangle Method encourages your creativity because there are no mistakes, only opportunities. People of all ages, skills, and interests around the world enjoy Zentangle. It provides a common ground, without criticism and encourages a positive atmosphere in which to create Art.
