Ancestral connection and reverence practices are woven into the fabric of every earth-centered culture. Yet, as Westerners, we have not only lost the skill and practices of ancestor tending, but we carry many unhealed traumas and burdens of the past as a result. Join Joseph Shumway (certified Ancestral Lineage Healer, genealogist, and ritualist) to learn basic ways to reclaim lost connection with your ancient, earth-honoring ancestors, along with how Ancestral Lineage Healing can be a powerful tool to heal intergenerational wounds and restore connection to the magical gifts of our ancestral lineages. Participants will learn basic concepts of Ancestral Lineage Healing and how to safely work and connect with their ancestors. Joseph will also provide a guided meditative practice to help folks learn how to connect with their Wise, Loving Ancestors.

Join local artist Andrew Shaw for a collage workshop exploring “single-page re-compositions.” In this process, participants will start with a single magazine page, tear the image into smaller pieces, and rearrange them to create a completely new composition. No cutting tools are needed. Instead, we’ll focus on tearing, layering, and gluing the pieces onto a new design, transforming the original image into a unique work of art. This FREE workshop is open to the public, with a $20 suggested donation. All ages are welcome, and the workshop is family friendly. You’re invited to drop in anytime between 6–9 PM, and you don’t need to stay the entire time. All materials are provided, and parking will be validated at OCA. Register and find our other classes at ogdencontemporaryarts.org/artist-factory-studio

Welcome to Ceramics! In this beginning to intermediate class, adult and teen 14+ students are invited to learn or expand on the foundations of working with clay. Students can expect demonstrations to support learning methods in pottery wheel throwing (centering, pulling, and vessel formation) and hand-building (pinch, coil, slab formation). After demonstrations, students may work freely on their own projects with instructor support. Additional instruction will be woven into lessons to build knowledge in the areas of surface techniques, function, design, and expression. We highly recommend students take this class a few times before moving up. While projects can very, practice and repetition in an instructor led environment are powerful tools for progressing. Students are highly encouraged to support each other and communicate with instructors their course related questions, needs, and curiosities! PRICE: $199 for 8 Week Class Plus Fees. DIFFICULTY REGISTERING? Please call our main office for assistance! 801.474.3796
