Stay tuned for our next event in March 2026
from 6:15 PM to 7:30 PM at Community Well in San Francisco.
Fai
Bring the whole family for an hour of creativity, connection, and community! No experience is necessary. Children as young as 5 are welcome. Families will elevate their stick figures drawing from their imaginations and real life.
Ashley introduces drawing as a cognitive tool for enriching families because research shows it is a high-speed feedback loop for communication. Through trial, error, and reinforcement, families strengthen their brain coordination and spatial reasoning. Drawing provides a variety of benefits to information processing, as well as increased experiences of joy and reward.
Light snacks and supplies will be provided.
Arrive earlier to find street parking.
