Aging and the Arts

Have you ever been curious about the colors and textures of Native American Artifacts? For this month's workshop, we will focus on texture, learn how to weave, and discover the Tucson Desert Art Museum.

Tucson Desert Art Museum and Four Corners Gallery is located at 7000 E Tanque Verde Rd, Tucson, AZ 85715.

This event is free and all materials required for the workshop will be provided, free of charge. The workshops are open to all artistic skill levels and no preparation is necessary to participate.

Creative Encounters in Awe Walking gives students and community members tools to encounter and share moments of awe in and across our communities. The goal is to promote awe walking as an accessible and affordable wellness practice across the lifespan. This series is a response to recent neuroscience research that has associated positive health benefits with taking short walks while looking for things that inspire awe. The Creative Encounters in Awe Walking Workshop Series explores how creativity can be used as a tool to enhance and encourage awe-walking practices in your daily life.

These workshops are being presented in collaboration with community partners from the Tucson area, including the Tucson Botanical Gardens, The Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures, the University of Arizona Center for Creative Photography, and the Audubon Society.
