4th Saturdays - Sound Bowl Session
Creative Connections: Art & Craft Social
Join fellow makers, artists, and DIY enthusiasts for a relaxed, inspiring gathering where creativity and community meet. Bring your own project—whether it’s painting, knitting, jewelry making, scrapbooking, or any other art or craft—and enjoy working alongside others in a warm, supportive environment.
While everyone focuses on their individual creations, the shared space encourages conversation, idea-sharing, and skill-swapping. You might discover new techniques, make valuable connections, or simply enjoy the motivation that comes from being surrounded by creative energy.
Bring your snacks, listen to music, and enjoy a casual atmosphere making this more than just a crafting session—it’s a chance to network with like-minded people, build friendships, and leave feeling both creatively fulfilled and socially connected.

Self-care Sessions
Crystal Cleansing and Charging
Crystals are powerful conduits of energy, but like all tools, they need care to perform at their highest vibration. Cleansing clears away absorbed negativity, releasing energetic debris from past environments and interactions. Charging infuses the crystal with fresh energy, realigning it with the natural forces of the universe. Whether bathed in moonlight, smudged with sacred herbs, or placed upon the earth, this ritual renews your crystal’s purpose and strengthens its spiritual connection to you.
Please bring a chair, your crystals, and any cleaning supplies (florida water, water, incense or smudging tools). This is a fun gathering for us to meet and talk crystals.
