7th December FREE: CREATE A FESTIVE WREATH

5.0(42)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

Celebrate the season with us at our Festive Wishing Wreath Workshop, led by renowned artist and spiritual guide Eugenia Rosa, on Saturday 7th December from 4-6 PM at the Art & Spirituality Centre in Edinburgh. Eugenia brings a rich background in both art, ritual, and folk traditions to infuse her workshops with meaning and magic. With her gentle guidance, you’ll create your own unique wreath using natural greenery, colourful decorations, and personal touches that reflect your hopes for the coming season. Why make a wreath? In Celtic tradition, wreaths symbolise the cycle of life, honouring nature’s eternal rhythms as we embrace winter’s darker days and welcome the returning light. Crafted with intention, a wreath can act as a circle of protection, warmth, and blessing for the home, making it a perfect seasonal ritual. What to Expect: Create a Unique Festive Décor Piece: With a range of natural materials provided, you’ll have the chance to design a truly one-of-a-kind wreath that captures your spirit and seasonal intentions. Relaxing and Fun: Take time out from the holiday hustle to immerse yourself in a cosy, creative environment with like-minded community members. Personal & Symbolic Touches: Bring along any personal items, such as small trinkets, ribbons, or symbols, to weave into your wreath, making it even more meaningful. Eugenia will share tips on selecting symbolic materials, the history of wreath-making, and how you can incorporate personal intentions to bring good fortune, warmth, and peace into your home. Spaces are limited, please book early. This class is sponsored by The Volant Charitable Trust Small Grants Programme, administered by Foundation Scotland. It is FREE and is aimed at WOMEN only from ETHNIC MINORITY BACKGROUNDS living in Edinburgh as per this funding application . This means “international”, from every foreign country. (Irish, any other white background, mixed ethnic, Asian/Asian British, Black/African/Caribbean, Black British, Arabic or other ethic groups) However we do welcome locals too so just sign up.

22nd December FREE: MAKE YOUR YULE CANDLE

5.0(42)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

Celebrate Yule with us at our Candle-Making Workshop, guided by artist and facilitator Eugenia Rosa, on Sunday 22nd December from 1-3 PM at the Art & Spirituality Centre in Edinburgh. With her knowledge of folk traditions and ritual, Eugenia will lead you in crafting your own beeswax candles—perfect for bringing light and warmth into your home as we welcome the winter solstice. Each candle you create can be infused with your own wishes and intentions for the season, making it a truly personal addition to your holiday rituals. Why make candles for Yule? In ancient traditions, Yule marks the rebirth of the sun and the gradual return of longer days. Lighting a handmade candle symbolises calling forth new beginnings, peace, and protection during the colder months. What to Expect: Craft with Intention: Use natural beeswax and wicks to make beautifully scented candles, personalised with essential oils or symbolic colours. Relaxing & Festive Atmosphere: Embrace a cosy winter setting with other warm-hearted community members. Symbolic Touches: Feel free to bring along small items to press into your candles or attach as a keepsake, making them even more meaningful. Spaces are limited; book your spot early for a radiant start to the season at the Art & Spirituality Centre.
