Spring Festival allowed us to reminisce about our fall stroll for botanicals and how the long winter made us long to see those past dried seed pods and pine cones burst into bud as every living thing seemed anxious for spring. Again art and narratives were created for our presentation.
We just completed our Children’s Platform this past Sunday. This year we took the opportunity to explore the impact of personal journey. We are loosing two of our members as they are moving away to Seattle. To make the event memorable the children co created a story we called Journey To Togetherness. It included a mural depicting the journey and each child created their own character with a personal motivation for their journey. Then they brought it all together in one long and intertwined saga. They performed it for the membership using dialogue they had written themselves and of course props and visuals they had collaborated on creating.
