ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
Have you ever felt something so deeply but struggled to put it into words? Or wanted to create something meaningful with your hands but didn’t know where to start? Pulled Into Being is a gentle, welcoming space for you to bring those feelings to life.
Over three quiet hours, we’ll guide you through writing a simple, honest poem and then stitching it onto fabric, bringing your words and emotions into being in a new, tangible way.
No need to be a poet. No need to be crafty. Just come as you are with your memories, your feelings and voice. We’ll help you find the thread that connects your inner world to the outside.
All materials will be provided, and participants will be able to bring their works home.
