It’s such an inspirational place to be. Ellen’s garden is magnificent. Come join us for two days of mandala making. \nUsing the symbolic meanings of colors to select your materials\, you will be guided to complete a 16” mandala from design to grout in two days. Using glass gems\, stained glass\, mirrored glass\, and ceramic tiles\, you will become immersed in the symmetry and flow of this circular form as the creating becomes a form of meditation. The materials used are weatherproof which will allow you to hang your piece outside on a garden wall. \nYou can register directly through the California Center for Creative Renewal here: \nhttps://www.artretreats.com/events/mosaic-mandalas-3 URL:https://marsharafter.com/event/mosaic-mandalas-at-the-california-center-for-creative-renewal/ LOCATION:Center for Creative Renewal\, Crest Dr.\, Encinitas\, CA\, 92024\, United States CATEGORIES:Class,Other Locations,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://marsharafter.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/IMG_1682-e1570569761629.jpg GEO:33.0312751;-117.2633445 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Center for Creative Renewal Crest Dr. Encinitas CA 92024 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Crest Dr.:geo:-117.2633445,33.0312751 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200310T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200310T123000 DTSTAMP:20260424T122039 CREATED:20200122T191150Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200310T001911Z UID:3515-1583834400-1583843400@marsharafter.com SUMMARY:Tuesday Morning Classes in Marsha's Studio- March 10 DESCRIPTION:  \nThere are so many creative projects in process in the studio –  a variety of wall pieces\, tables\, mirrors\, mandalas\, garden art pieces\,  a large “Tree of Life”\, and totems.

Enjoy creating in an expansive\, tropical\, outdoor and art filled walled garden.  Everywhere you turn there is art! The dishes are colorful\, the tables are mosaic\, there are mosaic benches and sculptures everywhere\, and even the lamps in the rooms\, the floorcloths\, and the furniture are all handmade art. Meals are served poolside each day for breakfast and lunch and are so delicious. \nHacienda Mosaico is located in Colonia Versalles\, a typical upscale Mexican neighborhood that affords visitors a chance to experience the charm of daily life in old Mexico. You’ll find cobbled streets\, with tortillerias and markets catering to the locals rather than the tourists…..craft shops\, cantinas\, night life and adventure. \nEvenings we will go into town for their weekly artwalk and to enjoy shopping\, to explore and have dinner by the beach. \nAll details can be found on the Hacienda’s website. \nhttp://haciendamosaico.com/marsha-rafter-2020/ \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Happy Campers\n \n \n \n \n \n Mosaic bench downtown\n \n \n \n \n \n Gina and her mosaic watering can\n \n \n \n \n \n Pam working on the top of her totem\n \n \n \n \n \n Nancy working on her bird\n \n \n \n \n \n Chelsea and her mushroom\n \n \n \n \n \n Teresa and her butterfly\n \n \n \n \n \n Kathy and her turtle\n \n \n \n \n \n Mary and the cylinder of magnificence\n \n \n \n \n \n The gang from 2019\n \n \n \n \n \n Fran working on her heart\n \n \n \n \n \n A beach walk at sunset\n \n \n \n \n \n Lori and her totem\n \n \n \n \n \n Jorge\, our chef\, and his beautiful presentation for lunch \n \n \n \n \n \n delicious and abundant food\n \n \n \n \n \n The seafood is so fresh\n \n \n \n \n \n Salads at every meal URL:https://marsharafter.com/event/mosaic-retreat-in-paradise/ LOCATION:Hacienda Mosaico\, Puerta Vallarta\, Mexico CATEGORIES:Class,Retreat ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://marsharafter.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/IMG_5155-e1563834953496.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Hacienda Mosaico":MAILTO:info@haciendamosaico.com GEO:20.653407;-105.2253316 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
