Altar Making: Opening the Door, Lifting the Veil

BOMBYX Center for Arts & Equity (130 Pine Street, Florence MA)

Art + Entertainment + Music

This event takes place on the cusp of All Saints/All Souls, Halloween and Samhain when spiritual energy shimmers powerfully. It is invitation, portal, encounter, veneration, hospitality, medicine, remembrance. It is the gift of creative process and sacred space, to call forth deeper stories that want and need to be told. These stories will unfold through a guided process of creating a vintage found-object personal altar or shrine, making this time spiritual practice in contemplative reflection, prayer, play and creative imagination.

You do NOT have to be “artsy” or “creative” in any way to find this time meaningful. This event is intended for adults.

All supplies to create altars are included, though you are welcome to bring your own boxes, objects, and creative materials.

Bring your own lunch; apple dumplings will be provided.

This event is sponsored by the Florence Congregational Church.
