Come learn bread basics and start your own sourdough starter. You will also have the opportunity to take home a loaf of bread to bake along with recipes for successful bread baking at home. Katie Franks is a homeschool mom of 4, born and raised right here in Guelph. Having trained at The Stratford chef school she is a certified red seal chef with many years experience as a baker at With The Grain. Equipment to bring: a glass jar for sourdough starter to take home and a medium stainless steel mixing bowl.

Join us November 27th with Emilie McNamara, a local artist whose work explores themes surrounding religious deconstruction, discourse on the female body and sexuality in the church, empowerment, healing, and bodily awareness. Emilie will be sharing five pieces of art in response to negative images and messages of feminine sexuality in Christian culture.

During this workshop participants will be provided with the opportunity to view each piece of artwork, select one piece to complete a guided artistic response to and then listen to a presentation by the artist on why she created each piece.

The workshop will be concluded by participants either continuing to engage with the art pieces one on one or by joining in a Q&A session with Emilie McNamara.
