Transformational Mask Making: Expressions of Spirit

The Center at Saint Andrews, Seattle
April 18, 25, May 2, 9, 16, 2012
7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

 In this five-week, fun experiential mask-making workshop, we will explore the use of masks for transformation and expression of Spirit. We will work in sacred space in the tradition of ceremonial mask makers throughout the ages. In the first week of the workshop, we will learn about the tradition of mask making in Africa, North America, and throughout the world. In the remaining weeks, participants will be invited to be creative in designing and making a mask of their own. We will use plaster casting material, paint, fine papers, natural materials, wool, fabric and other materials that participants wish to work with. In the final session, we will bring our masks alive and give them voice through ritual and ceremony, including a parade of masks inspired by the concurrent drumming class.

Learn the art of Visual Journalling.  Journal your thoughts, your dreams, and your prayers.  A visual prayer is a collage made with sacred awareness and prayerful intention. Sacred images intuitively are developed, capturing dreams, passions and sacred story.  Use visual journalling to capture your life journey.  This class will explore mixed media, altered books, collage, poetry, and artful play.  If you're a SoulCollage afficianado, bring your SoulCollage cards and use them as a springboard for your journalling.
