ABOUT ABOUT

As Passover approaches, we are charged to celebrate our freedom. Do you have a dilemma this year given the heart wrenching, challenging time for this country? How do we celebrate and feel okay about our own freedom when the foundation of American freedoms seems so shaken? We invite you to join us for an afternoon of creativity and imagery to help navigate this dilemma. In a gentle, guided, and artful way, you will make two collage cards; one will allow you to express your confusion and any triggers you may have about this moment in our history, followed by a second collage that will be of support and potential healing. This method of self-discovery, if done consciously, supports you to nourish your soul in a surprising and elegant manner.

In Person: Supplies/snacks will be provided

For Zoom: You will need on hand:

* A few magazines, old calendars, books you are willing to cut up.

* Print images: You may want to go online and print out images that seem to suggest those themes. The images will be based on the two cards we described in the description. Don’t worry if you aren’t clear. Images that call out to you “for some reason,” may be perfect.

 

* A 5 x 8 inch card or thick paper

* Scissors

* Glue stick or glue

* Journal or notepaper

* Pen
