SUMMARY:Art Workshops (Ages 6+) – Creative Islamic Art Experience
DESCRIPTION:This event is cancelled and may be offered at a later day\nThis workshop is designed to create a fun\, uplifting\, and encouraging environment where children can explore their creativity while being gently introduced to the beauty of Islamic art. \nEach child is provided with an 8 x 10 canvas board\, perfectly sized for small hands and big imagination. The session is centered around a simple Arabic word or design\, which they are guided through step-by-step in a way that is easy to follow and engaging. \nAlong the way\, children learn about the beauty and meaning behind Islamic art in an age-appropriate and inspiring way. Once the design is outlined\, they bring their piece to life with color\, patterns\, and playful creativity. \nThe focus is on having fun\, building confidence\, and feeling proud of what they create\, not on perfection. Every child is supported throughout the process and encouraged to express themselves freely within the guided structure. No prior experience is needed. \nEach participant leaves with a finished artwork they are excited to share\, along with a positive and memorable creative experience. \n\nAbout the Artist\nHina Chaudhry is a Houston-based mixed media artist specializing in contemporary Arabic calligraphy. Her work explores the intersection of language\, texture\, and spiritual reflection\, often drawing on sacred words and geometric form to create pieces that feel both grounded and expansive. \nWith over a decade of artistic practice and participation in more than 100 exhibitions\, her work is held in private collections and presented in community and cultural spaces worldwide. \nIn addition to her studio practice\, Hina facilitates curated calligraphy experiences for corporate and community settings\, creating environments that feel both engaging and intentional. Her approach blends artistic guidance with cultural context\, allowing participants to connect with the language in a way that feels personal and meaningful. \nSeats are limited.

SUMMARY:Art Workshop (Ages 13+) – Guided Calligraphy & Painting Experience
DESCRIPTION:This event is cancelled and may be offered at a later day\nThis workshop is an immersive\, elevated creative experience designed for teens and adults seeking both artistic expression and quiet reflection.\nEach participant is provided with a 16 x 20 stretched canvas\, creating a substantial\, gallery-style foundation for their work. The session centers around a selected Arabic word or phrase\, carefully chosen for its depth and meaning. \nYou will be guided step-by-step through the process of writing the calligraphy\, learning the flow\, structure\, and beauty of each letter\, before transitioning into the painting phase. Layers of color and subtle detailing are added with intention\, allowing the piece to unfold slowly and thoughtfully. \nThe atmosphere is calm and grounding\, encouraging you to slow down\, be present\, and engage with the process in a way that feels both therapeutic and restorative. \nNo prior experience is needed. Every element is guided\, yet there is space for personal expression within the composition. \nEach participant leaves with a finished artwork that feels refined\, meaningful\, and deeply personal—a piece that carries both artistic beauty and spiritual resonance. \n\nAbout the Artist\nHina Chaudhry is a Houston-based mixed media artist specializing in contemporary Arabic calligraphy.
