About the Event
This workshop explores the wonders of a Gaiascope! In Greek mythology, Gaia is the spirit of our planet. The Gaiascope is a new type of kaleidoscope that celebrates the beauty and interconnectivity of our natural world. In this workshop, you will learn how to create your own Gaiascope using a step-by-step process. Artist Brooke Einbender of Mindbender Studio will be leading the class. She will provide a colorful assortment of materials to adorn the inside and outside of your Gaiascopes, including decorative paper, stickers, pens, pressed flowers, beads, and gemstones. This workshop is suited for all ages, and families are encouraged to join the fun!
