Welcome CZT 26!

New friends, new location, new year . . . so much was new and exciting at this, our twenty-sixth (we still pinch ourselves when we say that!) Certified Zentangle Teacher training seminar.

In this blog post we'll let the pictures do the talking as we share a hint of the fun and creativity we shared with our new friends within the grandeur of our new venue.

First, welcome the Class of 26!


110 people from 17 countries! We added Argentina, Columbia and Russia so people can now find CZTs in 38 countries!

This seminar was held in the Providence Biltmore. This hotel was built for a Zentangle event because wherever you looked, there were tangles. In the lobby:


. . . or on the ceilings and walls of the ballroom where we had our classes . . .


And when Rick went out for a walk at lunch it was as if there were wonderful vibes showering our event:


Classes were held in that top room on the left. It's such a beautiful ballroom with all rounded corners . . . just like our tiles!

Maria, Rick (who was taking the pictures), Molly and Martha all led classes:





and the layout was perfect:




Many students shared their Zentangle inspired art they had brought:





. . . and enjoyed taking pictures of each other:

 
Meals were awesome . . .


complete with flaming deserts!


Most importantly, life-long friendships were formed and creativity abounded in numerous mosaics of Zentangle tiles:


(We'd show more, but we don't want to spoil ALL the surprises!)

All of us at Zentangle HQ are SO grateful for all who traveled from near and far to make this experience all that it could be.

Thank you!

For all who are about to come or who are considering attending, we look forward to meeting you and working with you.

Until next time . . .

Rick and Maria

Coming for CZT #27 and I didn't think I could get more excited, but the pictures and your words ... Not sure how I'm going to get to sleep the next couple of nights!

Would LOVE to know how to make that folded triangle book-like thing. Does it have a name? Any help or suggestions offered would be much appreciated! Please send to dmfbeads@bitstream.net Thanks!
