HEART OF SUMMER, Poetry & Art in the Garden
Studio of the Imagination & Family Heirloom Arts Studio SE Portland, ORCome create with us under the luminous summer skies, allowing yourself to be transported by the magic of the Pacific Northwest peak summer evenings in this three part monthly “mini retreat” series. This offering embodies the spirit of a creative retreat paired with summer art camp for adults. Each month we will read and write poetry in the garden as well as engage in play and discover through a series of nature-based art projects. We will create nature collages using dried flowers and other natural materials, experiment with nature printing including gelli prints and monotypes, and explore line, pattern, and texture through drawing inspired by nature’s infinite wisdom of design. This monthly retreat series offers you a chance to awaken your creative spark in the majesty of the natural world, cultivate new ways of enriching yourself and your life, and nourish yourself in the supportive, uplifting company of other women.
