Gather in a friendly group with Lynette, The White Witch of Wiltshire, and Artist, Tamsin Loveday for this gentle, crafty workshop celebrating Lughnasadh, the Grain Harvest festival.
We will make little bowls with warm terracotta oloured air-drying clay; pressing ears of corn and other shapse into the surface before draping the shape into a biodegradable bananna leaf bowl form. This can become an offering bowl for you home altar or sacred space, a container for you favourite crystals or jewellery, or simply a reminder of a well spent evening!
We will hear about Lugh, the Celtic  Sun God, who is known as the God of Crafts, making things and a job well made. Lynette will also talk about the practice of making offerings in historiacal and contemporary contexts.
Lughnasadh  is sometimes known as Lammas and is the first Harvest Festival in the Wheel of the Year. It is an abundant time of feasting and gratitude for the cornucopia of the grown harvest. This workshop is an opportunity to bring some creative joy to your celebration and make something truly personal imbued with your intentions.
Lynette will lead us in a short welcoming and cleansing ritual to create a safe space and help us to set our intentions. She will talk a little about Lughnasadh, and about the practice of making offerings to set the scene. Lynette will guide us in setting intentions and share information about colours and symbols of the festival.
Tamsin will talk a little about the process of working with the clay and support all creative aspects of the workshopp, making sure that we all have everything we need for a safe and companionable evening of crafting. Tamsin will demonstrate the process and we will try out the technique on postcard sized pieces of paper.
We will roll out the clay and cut out a circle, press in ears of corn and other shapes to creative persinal and symbolic designs, before draping the clay into bowl forms. This not only profiles the clay into a 3D bowl shape but wil cradle our new bowls safely for transport home and support them while they dry and harden.
Refreshments, materials and eventbrite fees are included in the ticket price.
Gloves will be provided but please bring an apron.
You will recieve materials to make a small slab formed bowl and a small pinch pot.
This magical workshop will be hosted in the Barefoot Bindery Studio upstairs at Fisherton Mill, Salisbury.
