Anam Cara Art Journaling at Prairiewoods
<p>As John O’Donohue writes, “<em>Anam</em> is the Gaelic word for soul and <em>cara</em> is the word for friend. So <em>anam cara</em> in the Celtic world was the soul friend.” In these four sessions, which stand alone, facilitator Angie Pierce Jennings will guide us to read and reflect on passages from O’Donohue’s deeply spiritual book <em>Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom.</em> We will use the process of art journaling as a creative way to further contemplate and explore the concepts of the book. Feel free to bring a journal or mixed media tablet, colored pencils and watercolor paints. (We will have some art supplies available.) Artists of all experience levels, including beginners, are welcome. Feel free to enjoy this as a series or individual sessions. Please register for each session by the previous Friday. The cost is $10 per session, plus the cost of the book (which is available in the Prairiewoods Gift Shop).

An eccentric little man called Bert tells them that they are now the caretakers of the Imaginarium Geographica -- an atlas of all the lands that have ever existed in myth and legend, fable and fairy tale. These lands, Bert claims, can be traveled to in his ship the Indigo Dragon, one of only seven vessels that is able to cross the Frontier between worlds into the Archipelago of Dreams. <br><br>Pursued by strange and terrifying creatures, the companions flee London aboard the Dragonship. Traveling to the very realm of the imagination itself, they must learn to overcome their fears and trust in one another if they are to defeat the dark forces that threaten the destiny of two worlds. And in the process, they will share a great adventure filled with clues that lead readers to the surprise revelation of the legendary storytellers these men will one day become. <br><br>An extraordinary journey of myth, magic, and mystery, Here, There Be Dragons introduces James A. Owen as a formidable new talent.</p> 2019-06-23 19:00:00 -0500

Before she could write, she began dreaming up stories. Starting with recorded conversations for her dolls on a Fisher-Price cassette player, she moved on to an antique typewriter found at a garage sale, then an electric typewriter, and finally computers. It wasn’t until she picked up romance novels in her late twenties that she found where she belonged. With the help of her husband, she carves out time to write while raising five children, working full time and obsessing over her laundry list of eccentric passions. Every new obsession seems to find its way into her romance world!</span></span></p><p><br></p><p><br></p> 2019-02-08 19:00:00 -0600
