About this Event
A Day of Learning + Connection
November 22, 2026 · 9:45 AM–3:00 PM
Arlington Garden · Pasadena, California
Come spend a day outside, learning from plants, artists, educators, and one another.
Earth School of Craft and Ecology is an invitation to slow down and reconnect with the land around us, our own creativity, and our community. Throughout the day, we’ll gather in the garden for conversations, sound, mindful moments, hands on workshops, and shared learning, exploring different ways of being in relationship with the Earth.
A DAY TO LEARN, MAKE + CONNECT
Join us for a day of grounding conversations, sound healing, natural dyeing, mycology, herbalism, and radical imagination. Together, we’ll explore our relationships with the natural world and with one another through thoughtful discussion, creative practice, and time spent outdoors.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Grounding Conversations + Mindfulness
Join Ary Sanchez-Amaya for a grounding fireside chat, and a mindful moment with Jo Little to slow down, listen, and reconnect with ourselves and our surroundings.
Sound Bath + Grounding
Experience a sound bath with Allie Brown and settle into the day through sound and stillness.
Natural Dyeing
Explore plants, color, and textiles through a hands-on natural dye workshop with Moon Bunny, followed by a reveal and time to finish your creations.
Mycology + Plant Relationships
Join Aaron Tupac for a fireside chat exploring the fascinating world of fungi and the ecosystems we are part of.
Herbalism

COME GATHER WITH US
Whether you come to learn something new, spend time outdoors, make something with your hands, or simply enjoy good company, Earth School is a space to slow down, reconnect, and remember that we are part of something larger than ourselves.
Green Girl Crafts is a creative community and earth school for the curious, founded by environmentalist and author Leah Thomas. Rooted in the belief that making things by hand can bring us closer to the Earth and to one another, it’s a place to gather, learn, experiment, and create.
