Respect Is... Workshop

This two-hour Workshop has the theme of 'Planting the Seeds of Hope”, and is part of South Gippsland Shire Council's 16 Days of Activism program of events. During this Workshop, you will use nature, gardening and real seeds to make sme beautiful works.

Over the first 90 minutes of the Workshop, author, artist and facilitator Beatrice Imbert will lead the participants from station-to-station to create your own storyboard or art piece (mostly in silence and quiet conversations). At the end of this part of the Workshop, you will leave with a take home seed meditation card.

In the last 30 minutes, you will complete a final work in a sacred circle before you head home. Your beautiful work remain on display in the Coal Creek Art Space as an acknowledgement to you and will be exhibited for the 16 Days of Activism pop-up exhibition, which will be on between Friday 20 November and Tuesday 1 December.

People who come along will be taught how to make a Seed Meditation and a Gratitude wheel. They will also have the opportunity should they wish to take it up to write a short letter or poem or answer a couple of questions in the private booth.

There will be music and scents as a calming foundation as well as a chai or cacao.
