Workshops and talks blending grief education, personal narrative, and hands-on creativity to support communities in meaningful reflection and connection

Mending What’s Broken Mobile Making

Things break. Fingernails, coffee makers, cars, bones, teacups, relationships. It’s impossible to go through life without experiencing some breakage. 

Mending What’s Broken uses sticks, paper, and embroidery thread to create mobiles that represent healing for the small and large breakages of life – anything from mirrors to marriages.  Participants can engage with their own narratives of loss and healing while they make and adorn a mobile to take home.

Mending Our Souls Textile Workshop

This workshop invites participants to reflect on loss, memory, legacy, and healing through the transformative act of making. Together, we will create keepsakes that honor our personal experiences with loss. Inspired by the goals of promoting grief awareness, reflection, and expression, this workshop emphasizes the powerful and healing nature of combining creativity with community.

This workshop includes a presentation on the prominence of textiles in relation to grief across cultures and history. The hands-on portion will explore how textiles can help us engage with our personal narratives of loss and healing. This workshop can be modified to accommodate different ages and a variety of groups of people.

Who Else Needs to Know?

I offer workshops and presentations that can be adapted to a wide range of settings, including conferences, community centers, workplace team-building events, churches, and retreats.

Drawing from my background in grief and bereavement as well as my practice as a textile artist, my work blends personal narrative, death awareness, and grief education through both engaging talks and hands-on, experiential activities.

I am committed to serving communities—both near and far—by creating meaningful spaces for reflection, connection, and healing.
