last week i had the opportunity of co-hosting our first RAW night (random art workshops). it was beautiful, yummy, open and kind. i've wanted to do something like this for a long, long time but didn't feel like i had people in close proximity who would want to do an art night. apparently, artists will travel! and while there were only four of us that joined together that night, sparkly magic still swirled around us. i provided the activity, art journaling, and amy provided the house and munchies. really, the only downfall to doing this is having to wait until next month to do it again! the conversation opened up to pretty raw topics as well, but we each felt safe to share our truths.
my hope and desire is to have little RAW nights pop up all over the place, giving us crafty girls a place to peacefully create and share. if you do start one, please share it here so that we can help to connect women.

I"m counting the days, love. It WAS magical.
And i'm buying an extra fold-away table.

What a fantastic idea! these pieces are great too.
Let me know if anyone will be doing this in my neck of the woods :)
Magical is a great word for it!
So are we keeping it the same week of the month and all that? If Amy is cool with her house hosting, I don't mind the drive. I can do food next month too!
sounds wonderful! Love the pages!!! I hope to join yous sometime . . .
I LOVE this. When I first heard about it, I immediately thought of starting an Ottawa version. :)
