Aloha Oe: A Creative Workshop With Stacy Makishi

Join us for a day-long workshop led by Hawaiian artist Stacy Makishi.Part of Stacys year-long participatory project Walking Each Other Home, which explores where and how we gather, how ritual can heal and transform, and how we might build communities of connection; connection to ourselves, to each other, and to inspiration and mystery.This workshop will focus on creative homesickness and is oriented towards creatives who feel far away from their creativity, perhaps feel they have lost their way, and/or need time to focus back in in a supportive and convivial environment.Stacy will offer a range of creative and playful tasks from writing to image-making designed to support you in your own creativity.

These will draw on her 40-year experience of making and teaching live art, and her spirited commitment to put more aloha into the world.All welcome!About Stacy MakishiStacy Makishi is a transplant from Hawaii who found paradise in Dalston, London in 1993.
