<P>Weave a dilly bag or sculptural piece with palm inflorescence. You will take home so much more than what you expected - connection, calm, groundedness and new friends! Experience the healing, nurturing and centering forces that emerge as you weave with awareness, intention and mindfulness. Rene will facilitate a journey through the creative energy of the universe using plants that are all around you - you will never look at your natural environment in the same way again! Beginners welcome. Please bring a lunch dish to share with the group, for extra culinary connection.</P>
