In this workshop we will be dividing our time in half. In the first half, we will be writing a letter to our younger selves and in the second half creating an artistic page to accompany the letter. No artistic skills are required. Please bring paper (if you have a journal, that would work great) and any craft materials you have on hand, paint, crayons, collage, etc.
Please email: dre@berrienuu.org if you would like to attend or have any questions.
Please join Tricia and Harvey Johnson at 1920 Sunset Court, St. Joseph, from 2pm until 5pm on Saturday, October 17th.
