Greenman Clay Mask Workshop

Sep 24 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

$65

Presented by: The Incubator Creative Hub

A Greenman is a sculpture found across many cultures around the globe, throughout history. Often found outside in parks or formal gardens, hanging on walls, imbedded in religious architecture, the Greenman is a face surround by or made from leaves with branches or vines sprouting from the nose or mouth. It is primarily interpreted as a symbol of rebirth representing the cycle of growth each spring. It also has pagan roots as a rebellious artform – during the Norman conquest of England, natives of the land were forced to build Norman churches and the Greenmen that appeared on these churches were often caricatures of their conquerors.

Every participant will be able to achieve their own unique mask made from Clay. They will be fired and ready to collect after within 3 weeks of the workshop.
