I am so excited to be able to share with you that a special workshop is coming soon to Little Bird Creations in New York City!
Over the last several months, mixed-media artist Seth Apter, writer Elizabeth Wix and I have been planning a new, collaborative workshop that will fill the weekend of March 9th and 10th with creativity and magic.
"The Need to Tell Stories" will be open to ten people, who will spend two days making their own book, creating pages of art, and writing their own story.
You will begin the weekend by creating a book from scratch that will house your art and your stories. Then you will be guided through a series of unique art activities that will bring out your creative spirit and add art to your pages. Next you will write your own story and tell your tale on the pages of your book. You wll finish up by binding your pages and pulling your whole project together.
This workshop will begin from the moment that you register... as you begin to think of your theme and to gather scraps, words, art materials and found objects that will support and enhance your story.
Seth, Elizabeth and I will be available by email to answer your questions, guide you through your art art gathering and help you develop your story.
Additional details, including the supply list and the workshop fee, can be found on the Little Bird site. Please note that in order to register for this workshop you have to first join the Little Bird Meetup site and be approved for membership. At that point you can register for the workshop, which is payable through Paypal only.
Registration opens on Tuesday, October 23 at 10am EST but you can sign up in advance to become a member of the Meetup group so you are eligible to register. As there are only ten spots, we hope that those of you who wish to register will do so quickly!
Seth, Elizabeth and I are very excited about working together on this workshop and we hope that you can join us!!
Just about to post!
