The Matriarchy Project

Wednesdays, 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18 from 5-7pm, at Creative York, York, Pa.

Join us for The Matriarchy Project! The Matriarchy Project is a creative workshop series for women to explore the intersection of motherhood and womanhood through poetry, abstract painting, sculpture, and mixed media.  Designed for non-artists and led by professional female artists, the program helps participants reclaim identity, share truth, and honor the complex stories we carry. This project invites participants to reimagine the concept of motherhood not only as a personal journey but as a collective source of wisdom, creativity, and healing

Instructor: Rosa Luz Catterall, Barbara DeCesare, Maureen Joyce, Carrie Breschi, Andi Simpson
