In this experiential workshop, you’ll have the chance to connect with yourself and kindred spirits, and get embodied with the earthy medium of Clay. You can choose to play with air-dry clay, which dries naturally over time, or Sculpey, which can be baked in a regular oven afterwards at home. You can embed small objects into the Air-dry clay (feathers, wire, beads, ribbons, small found objects), so feel free to bring them.

We begin the workshop with brief introductions, gentle movement and a grounding meditation. Then Marion will introduce materials and techniques, and we will work on our creations, followed by a warm hearted sharing circle to celebrate our creations. Air-dry clay and Sculpey can be glazed and painted once finished. This is also an opportunity to make a mother’s day or a birthday gift, make something for yourself or a loved one, or simply discover the childlike wonder of working with clay.

Marion is an experienced artist, working in ceramics, mixed media art and painting. She is the founder of the Heart of Us - an organization that fosters genuine connection via creativity, mindfulness and loving kindness. She will be offering a special topic for each of the Inspiration Lab gatherings. Plenty of clay will be provided. Please Venmo $10 fee is to cover the cost of materials to @RutaSegal, and bring a box or a container to take your creation home!
