JOY. HOPE. PEACE. LOVE.More than ever, such words are simple but powerful reminders of what’s most important, beacons to guide our inner light when life is overwhelming. In the midst of troubling times, an important aspect of self-care is the search for creative pursuits that fill us with joy and center us for our journeys. This workshop will explore the many ways that engaging in creative endeavors can nourish our spirits, invigorate our minds, calm anxiety, and reduce stress — while we take joy in the process.
The pure magic of mosaic making will enable us to carve out sacred time with ourselves and others. We will create mosaic words—JOY, HOPE, PEACE, OR LOVE— with an array of materials from my workshop in a myriad of colors and textures. We’ll choose from stained glass, ceramic tiles, bright baubles, pebbles, costume jewelry, mirrors, and much more. Whimsical sample fonts will be available for forming your chosen word.
Storytelling and sharing of quotes will add a depth of camaraderie as we share strategies and favorite creative pursuits that nourish our souls and our work in the world. Participants are asked to bring a favorite quote or short poem related to one of our words (Joy, Hope, Peace, Love) to share during our time together, and at least one item to embed in your mosaic. This rich exploration will live on in the inspiration taken from our mosaic words each day. Creative endeavors can’t “fix” the world, but they can rejuvenate us! They contribute to keeping us balanced, healthy, energized, and ready to do our part toward bringing a more loving community into being.
Community mosaic artist Cinder Hypki brings years of experience guiding groups in creative activities for celebration, exploration and healing. She brings her mobile mosaic studio to the Well, offering a sumptuous feast of materials for memorializing in mosaics. We are delighted to welcome Cinder back for her fifth mosaic offering at the Well. No prior experience with mosaics or any art form is required to participate. Cinder will guide every step of this joyful, creative, and life-giving process.
