Let’s be Eco-Logical! Workshops

Through dialogue, meditation, writing, and various eco-dyeing methods and techniques come create your own individual Prayers (wishes and hopes) for a healthy and balanced ecology. Resident Artist Anita will be holding socially engaged workshop around skill-based creative processes, with sustainable and eco-friendly techniques and materials.
