Join Rachael from The Spirit of Ray for this beginner-friendly workshop where you'll honor your roots by crafting a family tree with pressed foliage. Through quiet reflection, we'll anchor into our roots and together, we'll settle into stillness, and explore our lineage through meditative art-making.A Family Tree is a collage representation of your ancestry and the relationship between family members. Each stem, leaf, or flowering of the tree symbolizes a family member and how you are related to them.
Please bring multiple copies of each photo of your family members as we will be cutting them down to size - Bringing multiple prints of each image is encourage to give yourself room for cutting mistakes.
These two hours of intentional making is perfect for anyone seeking a softer pace, connection to community, and meaningful creations. After our journey together, making copies of your art to give as holiday gifts is a sacred and generous act of sharing your inner light.
