Altars by Susannah Crolius
If you have been waiting to dip your toes into the process of manifesting a portable altar, this workshop is for you!
This 3 hour gathering (1:30 – 4:30pm) is a hands-on workshop where you will learn to build and use your own home altar.
An altar can focus your spiritual practice: It is invitation, portal, encounter, veneration, hospitality, medicine, remembrance.
That is the gift of creative process and sacred space, to call forth deeper stories that want and need to be told. These stories will unfold through a guided process of creating a vintage found object personal altar or shrine, making this time spiritual practice in contemplative reflection, prayer, play and creative imagination.
You do NOT have to be “artsy” or “creative” in any way to find this time meaningful. This event is intended for adults.
All supplies to create altars are included! However, you are also welcome to bring your own boxes, objects, and creative materials.
COST: sliding scale of $60-$150 is based on what you can generously and yet easefully offer
