"I am grateful for a day set aside for artful meditation and prayer-like creativity. The opportunity to simply be and make. You have invited us into stillness and gratitude, and low and behold it's a salve to the dynamic static I often walk around it." Melanie Ferguson

It came at a time of great turmoil for me.
It strengthened me to face challenges ahead."
