Welcome to AnCan’s regularly scheduled guided art class! These free sessions are open to everyone and thoughtfully designed with our chronic illness and cancer community in mind.
Each class features a pre-planned, step-by-step art lesson led by one of AnCan’s instructors. No prior art experience is required. Participants are encouraged to work at their own pace, and modifications are always offered to support energy levels, physical limitations, cognitive fatigue, and access to art supplies.
In addition to learning creative techniques, these sessions are intended to support mindfulness and emotional well-being. Art can be a grounding practice—offering a moment to slow down, focus on the present, and reconnect with yourself through gentle creative expression.
Our goal is to create a welcoming, low-pressure space where creativity can feel restorative, calming, and accessible. We do our best to make every session as accommodating and inclusive as possible, so you can focus on creating in a way that feels right for you.
Sessions take place every 3rd Thursday at 8pm Eastern time
