This unique workshop is a full-day experiential journey that uses intuitive and creative modalities to awaken higher consciousness. Though we work with the modalities of art, our true aim is inner experience. Our creative immersion in color and collage carries us into a peak state of FLOW—freeing our creative spirit within. Movement and somatic exploration vivify emerging inner wisdom.
Participants are skillfully guided through three stages of awakening our inner visionary genius: SPARK to inspire childlike wonder; FLAME to ignite inner vision; and RADIANCE to express and shine our inner light.
We need this more than ever in these fiery times. Come experience how opening your inner channel unleashes creativity and courage!
Bring forth your light and SHINE!

While it appears that we have ample parking all around us, we are wanting to be sensitive to our neighbors who own the adjacent parking lot. Therefore we ask that you do not park in the church lot. Please park in the following areas in the order below:
- Park in our driveway. Right or left sides are both fine, just not behind the garages and not in the first spaces closest to the building.
- Park PARALLEL on the street across from us but NOT into the grass on the grass. (inside tires can be on the grass about 12 inches, the rest on the street)
- Park in the lot on the far side of the grassy area across the street. (Behind the grassy area near the brick wall)
Thank you so much for your consideration of this!
