It’s officially time to register for the Mindful Makers Summer Camp!
For the first time, Mindful Messages is hosting a 3-day creative summer camp for teens exploring art, confidence, self-expression, movement, nature, comics, wearable art, and community connection through hands-on workshops with local artists.
We wanted to expand the heart of the mural work happening in schools and create an accessible, creativity-centered space for Gainesville’s young artists and makers.
From dreamscape painting + mixed media self portraits to superhero zines and a collaborative community canvas for the Pride Community Center, this camp is all about creativity, care, connection, and becoming more fully yourself.
DM for scholarship information for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent campers — we want this experience to feel welcoming and accessible for ALL teens.
