About the Event:
Join us for a creative morning of art, reflection, and community. These sessions are loosely guided by Rachel McDonald, who supports people in creating their own Sacred Circles artwork — a mandala-style practice that helps reflect on personal journeys and the significance of seasonal change. Each workshop includes space for meditation, time to create, and a closing circle of sharing.
At the same time, this is also an open studio drop-in: a relaxed space where you can bring your own artistic projects, explore freely, and receive gentle mentoring and inspiration from Rachel if you wish. The atmosphere is informal and welcoming — a chance to create alongside others, exchange ideas, and reduce the isolation that can sometimes come with making art alone.
Whether you are curious to explore mandala art as a guided process, or simply want to enjoy a few hours of open, supported creative time, you are warmly invited. Beginners and experienced artists alike are welcome.
✨ Materials provided
✨ Good music, warmth, tea & coffee
✨ A space for connection, expression, and community

More information about the Donation tiers.
- Concession Tier 1 – This tier is for those who are students on a low income, carers, or single parents. It is also for people who are unemployed or underemployed, navigating financial hardship, or facing systemic barriers. If you rarely spend on extras or feel stressed about meeting basic needs, this tier exists so that you can still participate. Your presence matters, and you are welcome here.
- Sustainable Tier 2 – Choose this tier if you have stable employment or a regular income, are able to meet your basic needs and some wants, and can occasionally go out or put a little money aside. At this level, you don’t often worry about making ends meet.
- Generous Tier 3 – This option is for those with a comfortable income or savings, who may own their home or have access to family wealth. You might go on holidays, eat out regularly, or shop for pleasure. Contributing at this tier helps support the wider community and those accessing the concession rate.
