Event Description

About the Event

Join us for a special tour of of Making Their Mark: Works from the Shah Garg Collection to gather inspiration from abstract artworks. Then join ritual artist Tara Aura to create your own handcrafted herb bundles.

Bound tenderly with organic hemp, each bundle will be created with fresh spring foliage such as eucalyptus, sage, rosemary, and lavender, perfect for steamy showers and centerpieces, cleansing smoke, fireplaces, and general biophilia. We will enjoy a multi-sensory experience of each element while discussing their natural habitats and abstract symbologies from around the world before binding and trimming our own herb bundles.

All materials are provided.
