Create and Be HERE Now: A Mindful Altered Book Worskhop
Not currently scheduled.
Making art is the perfect way to create and hold onto meaning during tough times. Whether you are bombarded with worries about the economy, the environment, and/or the uncertain future, this workshop is designed to support your re-connection with the things that make life meaningful. Through the creation of your own altered book, you will be invited to abandon yourself in the present moment and to celebrate your experience of those things you hold near and dear.
Each week for 6 weeks, you will be gently invited to explore a different topic and technique. By the end of the workshop, you will have sufficient technical knowledge and the important beginnings of your own altered book journal so that you can continue independent exploration. However, it is likely that you’ll love it so much you’ll want to continue the meetings just like the last altered book workshop did!
When: Not currently scheduled.
$70/week includes materials.
Space is limited to 8 participants.
CEU's are available for MFT's and LCSW's, but you do NOT need to be a therapist to attend.
Payment is required for all 8 sessions, even if you are unable to attend. Payment for the first month will reserve your spot. Then you may pay for all remaining 5 sessions at once or your credit card can be charged after each meeting.
Please read bottom of page for cancellation policy details.
Every Woman is Someone's Daughter: Matrilineal Dollmaking
Not currently scheduled.
Doll making invites a sense of playand tenderness and lends itself to the exploration of a potentially challenging and issue laden topic: mothers. In this workshop, participants will use inter-generational photos and multi-media such as fabric, paper, scrapmetal, assorted junk, nature items, paint, etc. to create a grandmother, mother and self doll. We will invite reflection and discussion about the dolls that form. Because of the non-verbal nature of art making, new meanings and discoveries about grandmother, mother and self are sure to be had.
7 CEUs
Space is limited to 8 participants.
CEU's available for MFT's and LCSW's, but you do NOT need to be a therapist to attend.
Special thanks to Arnell Etherington and Sylma Fine for presenting this workshop at the 2007 AATA conference. It was such a valuable experience for me personally, that I decided to share it with others at my studio.

Our Fragile Personas: A Mask-Making Workshop
Facillitated by Lisa Mitchell, M.S. (read bio here)
September 16 and 30, 2011--Cancelled
This workshop is two half days. Each half day will invite you to discover and illuminate the ways in which you use personae in daily life. Using an individually and uniquely formed mask, each participant will engage with this powerful representation of self. The first day will focus on the external facade that is both useful and stifling. The second day's invitation will focus on expression of the internal, authentic representation of self that is so often vulnerable and hidden. Both days celebrate the authenticity and truthful creative expression that is at the root of this powerful excercise. Each person will be inspired to embellish, decorate, and transform his/her masks, and to ultimately interact with the inner and outer expression of self. Limitless supplies, limitless possibilities.
When: Workshop has been cancelled due to low enrollment. If you have a group who is interested, please let me know.
