Painting Witch Herbs with artist Irene Antonez

Join this whimsical workshop in the cozy Kohoutek restaurant garden!🎨
This time, we’ll be painting Witch Plants—those mysterious, beautiful, and legendary herbs, flowers, and fungi known to herbal women, midwives, and witches for centuries. 🌙
Once part of sacred traditions and healing arts, this ancient knowledge was often suppressed, feared, or hidden away. But these plants live on—in gardens, forests, and stories. From belladonna to mandrake to the glowing red cap of fly agaric, we’ll explore the wild world of nature’s most magical and misunderstood botanicals—plants that can be both remedy and poison, protection and transformation. 🌿🧪🍷
