A hands on workshop / demonstration to go through the step by step process of turning a dead squirrel into a nourishing soup. Part hands on skills & finesse; learning each part of the process in detail from making the first cut, to peeling off the fur, to cleanly taking out the guts and organs, to putting aside the meat with other ingredients for a soup. Part prayer and death doula-ing; honoring the spirit of the animal, giving them offerings, and listening to their medicine. We will be taking it slow to fully honor the spirit of the squirrel, to acknowledge what it may bring up for people, and to receive the wisdom this process invokes.

Our skin is the largest sensory organ and drinks in everything we put on it. It's time to nourish, heal and brighten your facial skin with an all natural facial regimen using ingredients 'straight from the kitchen'.

In this workshop, we will explore the history of tattooing, as well as piercing and other adornment practices from around the globe. Body modification has been, and still is, a prominent part of almost every indigenous culture. We will talk about different methods of tattooing & piercing, materials used, ceremonies, symbols, patterns, and revivals. My goal is to help folx reconnect with their ancestral roots through body adornment and deepen their understanding of tattoo, not as a trend, but as an ancient and sacred practice. I hope that people walk away from this workshop more knowledgeable about the tattoo traditions of their people and hopefully rekindle a connection to those who came before us. Nicolette Torres will be hosting the workshop 'Tattoo Traditions Around the World'...
