Nature Mandala Series with Beth Adoette
Local artist Beth Adoette is coming to Blithewold to share her unique practice of partnering with nature in a monthly workshop series. This workshop offers people the opportunity to unplug and be in the moment while exploring beautiful objects of nature. Please note that nature mandalas are ephemeral and will not be taken home. Photographs are encouraged. High-resolution, edited photographs can be ordered separately at the workshop for an additional fee.
September 25: For the Love of Dahlias
This workshop is all about celebrating dahlias, color, and what these bold flowers may be trying to tell us about ourselves. Come create a beautiful nature mandala with dahlias and other natural objects and contemplate why you are drawn to certain colors or types of dahlias. We will have some fresh-cut dahlias, but you have dahlias to share . . . bring some to share!
October 23: Rock Stories
Earth is one of the four elements often associated with autumn. In this workshop, we consider rocks which often hold stories and remind us of powerful experiences in our lives. Bring your story. If you have a rock that tells the story, bring it to use in your mandala! (Rocks will also be provided) During discussion time, everyone will have the opportunity to tell their story. Listen to the rocks speak through art and words!
November 20: Family Circles
This mandala workshop is all about acknowledging and honoring the people who make up “family” for us, through blood, love, or kindred spirit. Create a personal work of art that celebrates the people in your life using beautiful nature objects to capture their spirits, represent connection, or simply enlarge your gratitude for their contributions to your life. A beautiful workshop.
December 4: Lavare
In Latin, lavare means “to wash” and is the root of the word of the gentle, beloved, and powerful flower we call lavender. In this workshop, we will create a nature mandala with lavender and other natural objects as we allow our art, nature, and intuition to speak to us about what may need to be washed away for the moment, or for good. Join a group of curious, like-minded people as we explore and experience the power of gentle beauty.
