St Pauls Carnival Mandala 2023

Mandela's Hideaway

St Pauls Carnival Mandala

July 1st 2023

We created a Mandala display piece made from 36 individual circular pieces hand painted by children and adults in Mandela's Hideaway at St Agnes Park during Carnival day. Creating a group Mandala is a unifying event in which people can express themselves individually within a cooperative structure. We worked with quite a number of family groups simultaneously, giving many mandala pieces away as fridge magnet souvenirs. This calming activity created a calming space to unwind during and after the joyful mayhem of the carnival!
