In this six-session course at Crooked Tree Art Center in Petoskey, we’ll explore how nature, art, and the body can guide us through change and transformation amidst the winter and beyond. Drawing on the five elements—earth, water, fire, air, and ether—we’ll learn to create sacred space for ourselves and others to honor life’s transitions.We’ll work with the Grief Wheel, a cross-cultural map for understanding change and resilience, and practice trauma-informed embodied methods to support healing and wholeness. Each week includes a different art form to help us connect creatively with our experiences, our environment, and one another.
6 Sessions on Thursdays, starting January 15th - February 19th
6:30-8:30pm
Schedule:
Session 1: Grounding and Honoring Our Experience of Change – Getting to know each other, Resourcing Tools, & Agreements as well as an overview of the Grief Wheel and the course
Session 2: East - Air balanced by Earth – Altar Creation & Weaving
Session 3: South - Fire balanced by Water – Attuned Mindful Movement
Session 4: West – Water balanced by Fire – Embodied Evolution and Drawing through an Awareness of Deep Time with guest teacher Patrick Kelly Wise
Session 5: North – Earth balanced by Air – Resonant Vocal Expression
Session 6: Center – Ethers – Honoring our Connections and Callings – Co-Creative Collaboration
This is an opportunity to explore what the sacred means to you and how you are called to creatively honor how you are going through change as you are woven into relationship with all of life. No experience needed with any of the art forms and we will be inviting the spirit of play and curiosity to guide us throughout the 6 sessions.
