Protect your Self from the perils that can ambush you on your creative path! By embellishing a soft cloth doll to act as your warrior (or guardian), you can manifest the qualities you want to protect yourself from critics, crazymakers, or anything else that theatens your creative potential. We'll have all the 3D objects out for this and I'm quite sure we'll make a glorious mess! (Don't sew? No problem! Neither do I! :)

As always, PLEASE RSVP conscientiously: a "yes" RSVP who never arrives means a missed opportunity for someone else! If you discover you won't be able to attend, please give us AT LEAST 3 days to give another artist a chance to play, or you will be responsible for the cost of the event. Please be considerate of others as you would want them to be considerate of you!

I provide the space, supplies & cleanup. All you have to do is show up and bring...

1. A desire to explore the intent of self-protection

2. A hopeful heart willing to share with other creative companions

If you're open to carpooling, please include what part of town you're in so we can connect you to others in your area.

Who attended?

    • “ I came away with a lot of nice thoughts from others and also things that I discovered in my own creation. It was so fun, thank you again, Gretchin! :) ”
    • “ This was an eye opening exercise in what "self protection" means to each of us. I was amazed at the variety of interpretations that each artist created for their protection doll. I ended up making more a "muse" doll for creative inspiration in my own life. ”
    • Gretchin Lair (+2 guests)
      “ i love our dolls and how they each reflected a little bit of our spirit & our best selves. ”
