Workshop with Luisah Teish
Luisah Teish will present popular and little-known myths and stories of plants: herbs, trees, flowers and vegetables and their relationship to humans and other beings from world cultures. Participants will explore their relationship to the world of plants, as reflected in the mythology, ecology, and spirituality of their own culture. Visualizations, movement, song and other exercises will enhance the students' ability to perform story writing and storytelling. Materials such as fresh herbs, flowers, spices, fabric and objects found in Nature will be used to create sacred objects. This workshop is open to women, men, and children. Participants should wear comfortable clothing; bring writing and art materials, and small instruments.
A one hour no-host lunch break will be provided. Participants can bring a brown bag lunch or go to nearby eateries.
