The Power of Fairy Tales - An Enchanted History
This talk is a wild ride through the history of Fairy Tales, their politics, mystery and why they hold so much sway on our psyches. Join us!
SACRED STORY WORKSHOP
SACRED STORY WORKSHOP
EMBRACING THE BEAR
$15 members $20 non-members
'Valemon' is an ancient fairy tale of bears and spells, the yearning of the soul and a heroine who rescues her love and decides her own story. Through storytelling, simple ceremony and creative processes, trace the threads this tale weaves for insight and accessing the unexpected beauty of hidden gifts. Connect with the mythic realms to access a wilder kind of knowing.
Let the magic of old tales weave their enchantment
‘Jacqui’s deep dives into Story are transformational. This is true soul work.’

QuaKers Embroidery
Australian Quaker Narrative Embroidery Project
Join us to explore panel for Margaret and Albert Morris
Purpose
The purpose of the Friends in Stitches Committee is to coordinate, encourage and grow the Australian Narrative Embroidery project. As of today we have twenty four completed panels and another ten in progress. We envisage at least forty, but we have enough fabric for seventy.
A panel begins with the ideas. Then follows research and the creation of a design using images and text. The completed cartoon is drawn onto calico and tacked onto the woollen fabric ready for the stitching of the embroidery. The finished embroideries are mounted and then displayed in Quaker Meetings and other venues around Australia.
