Nottingham Mental Health Awareness Week – Mindful Sketching with Niche Artefact

Step away from the noise and reconnect with your creativity in Nottingham City Library‘s drop-in Mindful Sketching Workshop. This calming, hands-on experience invites you to slow down, observe deeply, and express yourself through simple, intuitive drawing. No artistic experience? No problem. This workshop is not about perfection—it’s about presence. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn how to:

• Quiet your mind and focus your attention
• Observe everyday details with fresh perspective
• Let go of self-judgment and draw with freedom
• Use sketching as a tool for relaxation and self-care

This event is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

• No experience needed
