Upcoming class

Shelters of the Heart –part of Summer Institute in Spirituality and the Arts,UTS

In this workshop we will build small shelters--for our inner selves, for our relationships with others and as a dwelling for the sacred. We'll explore interiors and exteriors and the ways in which different surfaces and materials can offer space for dialogue and a space to build our visions. We will create "portable sanctuaries" using mixed media, papers, fabrics, beads and imagination. No art experience necessary!
