With a new studio on my property, I'm so happy to be able to offer more intensive workshops this winter and fall in beautiful Tucson (yes, we do have the best winters just about anywhere). Depending on availability, participants can also stay here as well, affording workshop members a chance to share meals and informal discussions as well as the class activities.

MASK AND MYTH
3 Day Mask Arts Intensive Workshop
for Men and Women
April 14 - 16, 2017
$300.00
Limited Housing** is available for $50.00 extra
Introduction and check in begins Friday evening, and Workshop ends at Noon with a potluck lunch on Sunday. Although masks can be experienced as art objects, by their very nature they are active rather than passive. They are "vessels for our stories". We'll draw on our “mythic imaginations” as we explore the creation of durable theatrical masks. Is there a Persona that awaits a face, a story, a voice? Creating a mask is a way to open the conversation. We'll learn:
· To sculpt masks from our faces, creating durable theatrical masks.
· Explore personally significant stories of mythic Archetypes.
· Discuss approaches to working with masks for performance, community, and
educational purposes.
Note: There is a $20 fee for supplies. Bring a story, and art materials that you might wish to include in a mask.

"Myth comes alive as it enters the cauldron of evolution,
drawing energy from the storytellers who shape it."
