Event Overview



Are you wanting to tap into your creative wisdom, and fill your day with nourishing practices? Have you always wanted to learn how to make jewelry?


Join us for a day of connecting through the traditions of ancient times where women gathered to sing, honor and nourish their bodies and adorn themselves with treasures.We'll sing, practice qi gong, and journal together, sharing our intentions and voices, and of course, we'll use our hands and heart to create something meaningful and magical.

We will be creating our own power objects (a bar necklace and earrings) and infusing them with our own individual mantras.

We will teach the practical skills of how to make and design jewelry using chain, headpins, semi precious stones, and wire. 


Also: The upstairs space does not have elevator access. Please plan accordingly.

Time: 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Saturday, 9/23/17 (Lunch break 1 hour bring your own, or enjoy one of the many little spots on South Pearl St.)

Investment: $99.00 for the day (includes materials.)

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

I have a mission! I want to bring people together to create, and grow a collective of curious creatives and artists in arms who wish to share their passion for making and hand crafting beautiful things for the pure joy of it. I believe all art comes from the soul, the architect, and the hands and eyes are the builders for those inspired ideas. I myself am a bead and jewelry enthusiast, but I want to gather makers of all arts to inspire, support each other, and share. I'd love to build a creative community, and bring together others who have a passion for making things. I also sing, play 5 instruments, and songwrite with my darling song sisters, The Warm Honeys, Sweet Water Remedy, and Starling in Denver and Boulder.

Ellen Pierce co-teaches the Songwriter Share Workshop. She is also the co- founder of Yoga in Your Park (YiP), coach trained as a therapist and performer, is one to spark your internal inspiration. When you are with her you feel like she is singing just for you - her songs are designed to trickle in, open you to the depths of who you really are and dissolve any lingering tensions. Ellen is known for her relentless idealism and joyful persistence. Ellen received a master's degree in Contemplative Psychotherapy (Naropa University) and was trained in the art of yoga at a the Nosara Yoga Institute at the 500 hour level with extensive (700 hours) of training at Children's Hospital Colorado in Yoga Therapy. Two parts honey, one part sting, Ellen will inspire you to live into your next iteration with grace and ease.

Abby Lee is my assistant and co-teacher and will sometimes teach my jewelry classes. She says: Hi beautiful people! I'm Abby and I originate from the suburbs of Chicago, but traded the city lights for the mountain peaks! I am a bilingual Spanish special/general education teacher and an inspiring family and student advocate. I love working with all walks of life and growing everyday in new experiences. I love to explore and play outdoors, cook, see live music, watch movies, practice yoga and spend time with my friends and new wonderful people I meet. I am so excited to create wonderful works of art with everyone!
