Writing and the Art of Healing:
A Workshop for Women

Automatic free-writing exercises invite participants to dialogue with their bodies and deepen their understanding of the memories stored in their bones. Connect with your creative core and invite wholeness and meaning-making. Share writing with class members to give witness to the power of the written and spoken word’s capacity to foster healing.

All forms of writing are welcomed. No prior writing experience is required.

Jump-Start Your Creative Self

Develop confidence in your work through writing exercises and in-class discussion of the creative process. Keep a creativity journal as a way to deepen your understanding of your creative spirit and ways you can nourish it.

Divine Feminine Workshops

Mary’s been an independent scholar of the Divine Feminine for over 30 years.

In addition to self-study and research, she has participated in two Dark Mother study tours (Sicily in 2001 & Sardegna in 2004) guided by Lucia Chiavola Birnbaum, Ph.D., author of Black Madonnas and Dark Mother.

Mary’s Divine Feminine workshops are an interactive, pictorial adventure. Full of 100s of images of the feminine face of God, the information she presents arises from experiential research, on-site visits to archeological ruins, museums, and churches as well as her insatiable appetite for reading scholarly works on all aspects of women’s spirituality.

Reclaiming Our Mother:
A three-part workshop on the Feminine Divine

Join Mary in a pictorial exploration of Paleolithic cave art and goddess figurines, Neolithic icons and modern-day Black Madonna images. Trace the multi-millennial memory of the Sacred Feminine and uncover the roots of the primordial “Mother of Us All.”

Humankind’s first deity was dark, female, and African. Who is this Feminine Face of the Divine? And what can contemporary society glean from her values of justice with compassion, mercy, equality and transformation?

Ancient Images/Modern Icons

Offered through the Art Students League of Denver, this three-part, hands-on workshop blends art-making with an overview of archeo-mythic sacred female images. Combining experiential lectures with ceramic studio activities, it covers 100,000+ years of the Sacred Feminine in cave art and icons. View sacred images. Sculpt ceramic icons, stamps, tiles and masks.
