Grief Circle Workshop with Jennie Bastian

Grief Circle Workshop with Jennie Bastian

*Offsite
Saturday, Feb 8, 2025, 10:00am to 12:00pm

Come to the Thurber Studio for a physical and emotional take on the classic sewing circle. There will be sewing, conversation around personal and societal experiences of grief, and some physical exercises aimed at finding our supportive center as makers. Due to space limitations we will be focusing on hand sewing. Bringing some of your own materials is encouraged, but not required. All levels of sewing knowledge is welcomed. 

Please note: One or more individuals in this small space are immunocompromised. For that reason, we are requesting all attendees kindly mask before entering. Masks are provided on-site if needed.

This workshop is designed for adults. Ages 16-18 are welcome to join with an adult or guardian.

Youth Program Room
Saturday, Feb 8, 2025, 2:00pm to 4:30pm

Unleash your kid's creative power!! Join us for a fun-filled, creative adventure where imagination meets sustainability! In this youth-focused program designed and led by artist-in-residence TetraPAKMAN, children will transform everyday cereal boxes into vibrant, one-of-a-kind masks by using a variety of art supplies and materials - familiar and unknown! Participants will learn to cut, shape, fold and decorate household cardboard boxes pulled from the recycling bin into imaginative masks inspired by animals, characters, or anything they dream up.

This open-ended program encourages creative expression, environmental awareness, and hands-on making for all ages. There's no right or wrong way to create—just endless possibilities of self-expression through art with intentional materials.

This gathering will arm grown-ups with tactics, (TetraPAKMAN’s) top tools for creating and permission to try this type of open-ended experimentation and play at home…without leaving your home covered in paint and slime.
