Write and make a life storybook in June
Event description
Sharing stories of your every day life enriches and strengthens connections in the community, in your family, in your life, and builds your sense of belonging and worthiness in the world.
A life storybook can provide a memoir to share with your love ones and to keep as a memory of special life events. You can use it to help remember moments about growing up, your family, your school days, the places you have lived and other things about yourself.
Come along over 4 Saturdays to create your story in beautiful Aldinga Beach with Annette Rohde from Fresh
Ginger Creative, you'll be guided on planning and creating the content for a life storybook (eg: your own story or a
family member), creating your front cover and making your life story book.
In this workshop you will:
- Immerse yourself in some specially designed activities to get your creative juices flowing
- Explore the life story thread that you want to focus on
- Create the title of your story
- Consider different types of images and create the cover image for your story using lino cutting or dry point etching.
- Design the format and structural elements of your story
- Start writing first rough outline of your story.
- Learn how to make handbound books using Japanese stab binding technique using simple and complex binding patterns.
- Be provided the opportunity to make your books using other binding techniques.
I look forward to sharing this experience with you and helping you to honour and express the heart threads of wealth and knowledge that come from the experiences in your life.
Participants of this workshop are invited (but not required) to stay in the accomodation on the premises. Contact Annette on 0438 639 046 to arrange.
