Special session - Values in Motion: A Mindful Doodling Workshop with Zack Sandor-Kerr

Session Description

Join us for a unique workshop focused on mindful creativity in the workplace. 

Facilitated by artist Zack Sandor-Kerr and Susan Willsie from OHD, this session explores reverse coloring book experiences, where you doodle and draw over beautiful blobs of shape and color. Together, we’ll Think Differently as we embrace creativity, Act with Purpose by carving out time for mindful reflection, and Work Together to co-create something meaningful. 

In this workshop, you’ll discover tools for mindful creativity, experience the refreshing, mood-boosting power of a mid-day art break, and contribute to giant collaborative canvases. These art installations will be displayed across our campuses, showcasing our shared creativity and bringing our values to life in a vibrant, visual way. 

If the words “making art” make you want to run the other way, this session is especially for you. No experience or (perceived) skill is required—just come, doodle, and enjoy.
