A wellbeing day - An opportunity for quiet reflection, mindfulness and creativity outdoors in nature.

Times of led meditation on the grounds of Pleshey will be interspersed with printmaking demonstrations and opportunities to try out different monoprinting techniques, using plants from our surroundings. If the weather is right, we will make cyanotypes in the afternoon (images made using light sensitive paper). Each technique is playful and rewarding. Suitable for all - both beginners and experienced. All materials are included.

Chelmsford Diocesan Clergy & LLMs may apply to use their CMD grants.
