Kindness Rock Painting Events

Select Sundays, 12:45 – 2:00 PM | In-Person in Petoskey

Join us for a relaxed, creative gathering where we paint rocks with inspirational messages to spread kindness throughout our community — part of our Kindness Gardens Initiative.

What to Expect: Grab a brush, pick a rock, and create something beautiful. Whether it's a favorite quote, a word that matters to you, or just some colorful design, each rock becomes a small spark of connection for someone who finds it. No artistic experience needed — just come and create.

These are separate, drop-in events. You do not need to attend a MindAligned Meetup first — come for the rock painting alone, come for both, whatever fits your day. All are welcome.

Who This Is For: Ages 13+ welcome. Ages 13-15 should be accompanied by an adult; ages 16+ may attend independently. A relaxed, family-friendly way to be part of the Surf the Earth community.
