NOVEMBER THEME: Trees
Trees gift us with the feeling of strength, continuity and grace. If you’re able, spend time with your sturdy friend. Hold one of her leaves in your hands, close your eyes and whisper a prayer of gratitude. We’ll use collected leaves to explore ways to create lively compositions. Leaves of various shapes and sizes will be provided for in-person participants; feel free to collect and bring others.
