Hello Rick and Maria,
Time flies when you are having fun and we had so much fun last year that we never got a chance to welcome all the new Certified Zentangle Teachers from around the world in our newsletter.
Since we are honoring the Zentangle philosophy of No Mistakes this month, we thought it was an appropriate time to play catch up and celebrate all of the passionate and enthusiastic tanglers who joined our worldwide family of Certified Zentangle Teachers in 2023.

CZT 40: April 4-7, 2023

It is hard to describe the energy and gratitude that is felt at a CZT seminar, and CZT 40 was no different! We arrived from our homes as strangers from different cultures, backgrounds and generations and we returned home as part of a family with a passion for sharing the Zentangle Method.
| |
At each seminar we invite students, both in person and online, to bring their Zentangle and Zentangle Inspired art to share. It is always a beautiful and inspiring collection. We invite you to enjoy the CZT 40 Student Gallery. | |
CZT 41: September 22-24, 2023
In September, we hosted an online seminar that brought together 193 tanglers from all over the world. Some joined us from across the street and some from across the world. We are always amazed by how much we can feel the energy from everyone during an online event.

After many years, the CZT Asia Seminar returned to Shanghai, bringing everyone together once again! It was a joyous occasion to reunite in person and engage with CZTs face-to-face, learning, sharing, and immersing themselves in the art of Zentangle. CZT-Asia 23 offered both in-person and online participation options, providing an opportunity for more Zentangle tanglers to learn together. With a total of 32 participants, both in-person and online, a wonderful time of Zentangle exploration was shared.
