Create your own soft sculpture inspired by the stars that guide us. Fuse creativity with celestial navigation by ironing on raw canvas to reveal intricate constellations, adding bursts of color with fabric pastels, and bringing the sparkle of the night sky with shiny stars. With each stitch and stuff, you'll sculpt a unique piece that can stand as a beautiful display or double as a decorative pillow. Unleash your imagination and bring the cosmos into your home with this captivating activity!

Join us on April 16th for our 2nd activity inspired by Andrew Krivak's The Bear!

Geomorphism is the study of the changing earth: how water, wind, ice and other elements keep our planet in constant flux.

For this project, participants will create a panel combining man-made and nature-provided materials. Upon completion, attendees have the option to keep their piece inside and enjoy the work as is, or to place it outdoors and allow nature to take over and continue working on it.

If you allow nature to collaborate it starts to change. Watercolors run. Colors fade. The cardboard base breaks down and what is left are the rocks, shells, sand, glass…the natural materials.
