“All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” – Pablo Picasso
uBe Art has designed a creative workshop program—doodle. sip. repeat.—that promises to teach you absolutely nothing.
Why go?
Studies are surfacing regularly, touting the benefits of creative activities – addressing everything from anti-aging and cognitive stimulation, to problem solving and stress relief.
The link being the production of that lovely chemical called Dopamine.
Artists, athletes, and scientists are at the top of the list of those consistently reporting the sense of losing oneself . . . disappearing when focused in their endeavor, and experiencing bliss.
“It’s the sense of losing oneself in a project that uBe Art and doodle. sip. repeat. is providing,” says owner, Winn Taylor. “We aren’t training artists, we are unleashing the kid in adults—the one who parades their macaroni sculpture around with pride. Kids don’t care about “being an artist”—they are creative for the pleasure of creating.”
Unlike the numerous popular programs that combine wine and painting, uBe Art promises no two participants will walk out with similar creations . . . not even close.
With workshops like Magical Zoology Collage, Found Object Shadowboxing, and Invention, uBe Art makes it easy and fun to jump in.
“It’s amazing. We pull out the materials and give a little direction and the participants dive in. Long stretches of silent creation just unfold naturally. Everyone is lost in the process. It truly is like being a kid . . . just plain fun.”
When you’re ready to bliss out and have fun, check out uBe Art. You’ll make the kid in you very happy.
uBe Art, located at 2507 San Pablo Avenue, Berkeley CA is open to the public Friday and Saturdays from 12 to 7 PM, and on Sundays from 12 to 5 PM. Monday thru Sunday available for special events.
