Join Visiting Artists Jackie Gonzalez Wooton, Hector Boldo, and Tom Boldo on Wednesday, September 16th at 3pm for this guided workshop.
Freeman Hall 113
 
Tap into centuries of tradition and spiritual creativity in this unique hands-on workshop.  Participants will learn to create their own spirit dolls using natural materials like wooden sticks, fabric scraps, raffia, yarn and symbolic adornments.  Spirit dolls, known across cultures as poppets, munecas, or protective charms, have historically served as tools for healing, manifestation, ancestral connection, and personal expression. 
 
Supplies will be provided, however participants are encouraged to bring personally meaningful objects and embellishments.
 
Free and open to the public!  Email dboswell@caad.msstate.edu for more information.
