Using different templates and a stunning assortment of papers, you’ll fold, layer, and assemble your design to completion, resulting in a one-of-a-kind card.

With Hands and Heart
In a turbulent and changing world, we can sometimes feel powerless. This workshop celebrates the impact each of us makes through our daily actions. Our hands are our hearts in action. We begin by tracing our hands with awareness of the gifts we offer and receive. Paint, draw, collage and decorate your hand art. Join hands into a book where you can write a message. How do your hands tell your story?
