Gathering Gratitude
Saturday, November 8th: 2 - 4pm

As the season of gratitude arrives, take time for yourself with this unique workshop at the historic Balch Hotel. Join mindfulness instructor Emily Martin for an afternoon of reflection, gratitude, and watercolor painting.

We’ll begin by gathering in the cozy parlor to slow down, breathe, and simply enjoy being present and grateful for what is. From this place of ease, we’ll move into painting with simple, encouraging guidance. Each participant will receive the complete Gorge Art Box: a curated art kit filled with quality supplies, iconic Gorge sketches drawn by local artists, and a bonus sketch of the Balch Hotel.

You’ll leave not only with your hand-painted keepsake but also with the remaining contents of the Art Box – an invitation to continue moments of calm and creativity at home.

Come as you are. No prior painting or mindfulness experience needed – just curiosity, a love for connection, and a little time to embrace the season’s spirit of gratitude.
