Workshops & Retreats

Journal Club

Thursday, June 26, 7:00 PM
Thursday, July 24, 7:00 PM (this is an updated July date)

A new monthly gathering for our fellow art journalers (or those who want to be). Bring your journal and favorite supplies and hang out with Liz. We will write and create and tell stories together in the studio. This time will be mostly unstructured but a few ideas will be shared, and Liz will have some supplies out for folks to play with. Tea and bubbly water and some snacks will be available too. 

This is a pay-as-you-can gathering, which means anyone who wants to join will not be turned away. You can pay something when you sign up if able or when you come to the shop. Please sign up for a spot either way right here.

Write Here 

Coming in late Summer 2025! A writing workshop to help you put pen to paper so you can fill up the blank page. (If you're someone who would love a twice a month writing group, get in touch. I'd love to host this as an ongoing class.) 

A NOTE FROM LIZ

Let’s gather and tell our stories.

My workshops and retreats are an invitation to pay attention and be present to the world within and around us. You'll join me in my studio here at Three Bird Layne, and I'll invite you to look inward in ways that will delight your spirit and offer you a way to explore who you are and want to be in the world. We will play with words, stories, paint, paper, and so many other things. I've been teaching in-person and online for more than 15 years now, and I look forward to connecting with you here in my new space.

Each workshop I lead includes creative and mindfulness prompts and practices that help us gather evidence of daily life - from the moments of beauty to the messiness that are both part of life. Whether we are writing together, taking photo walks, creating in art journals, or sharing our stories, you will feel supported and encouraged to listen to the voice within. 

I can't wait to meet you,
Liz
