Do you appreciate art for its beauty or do you think its truth comes from the emotions it evokes? What is your truth? You don’t need to spin your wheels searching for answers to these questions. You need an Elixir.

Elixirs allow you to slow down and focus on the current moment. They are facilitated activities that promote wellness and restoration, activate curiosity, and expand use of the senses to connect us with the world around us, and more importantly, to connect us with ourselves. When you need respite from the chaos and stress of life, an Elixir is your cure.

Join artist Ja Nelle Davenport Pleasure for the first program in the Elixir series—In the Eye of the Beholder. Using only a mirror and recycled materials, you’ll create a sculpted figure that represents your beauty and personal truth as seen only through your eyes. Share your story through your sculpted creation in this open, safe space.
