Plants for Healing Workshop

Bring a plant – one from your home or a found plant in your neighborhood, maybe even a weed. During our community gathering, participants will each add a plant to a small healing garden that has been created in the gallery. Participants will draw both live and dried plants, as well as make assemblages using dried plants, paper and debris. Sharing stories about plants, gardens, nature and healing will be welcome.

All supplies provided – just bring a plant to contribute if you can! Register for the workshop here.
