One Day Drum Making Workshop
“Deep in the heart of the Earth a dream is waiting…deep in the souls of us all it is awakened….”
In this daylong workshop, we will create ceremonial space where individuals birth a drum from start to finish. Zelda, whom has over 28 years’ experience creating drums, has become a vessel for Creator to hold the energy for each person as they create a deeper relationship with the Mother to do the work that is needed in their own healing.
Our connection to the sacred hoop is created, reminiscent of the womb, connecting Creator, Mother Earth and Drum Maker all walking together to unwrap the gifts that perhaps have been forgotten along the way.
Materials used in the making of the drums have been ethically sourced. Skins are not processed but harvested in a natural way. Participants will be guided by Zelda in an intuitive manner whereby the appropriate animal skin (deer, elk, buffalo) will seek out you to help in your healing.
Zelda welcomes each new creation into the world with the same joy and enthusiasm as a midwife whom places a newborn infant in the arms of the parent!
“We of the earth hear her call and we will answer, for She is the music and we are the dancers.”
Cost: $400 includes all materials and Lunch.

Mask Making Workshop
"Your finished Masks will show the inner beauty of all aspects of all aspects of your being."
- Zelda Hotaling

- Friday, 6:00pm – 9:00pm

- and Sunday, 9:00am – 1:00pm
Cost: $1400 all materials included. $100 deposit non refundable.
See the Events Page to sign up for next workshop.
The mask making workshop is about looking at your duality. We explore the teachings (lessons) and the patterns that come from your subconscious mind. One of the most transformative and creative acts you can undertake, is to create a mask of your face.
We will be making 3 stages of different Masks:
- What we came in life with
- Where we are now
- The Great Mystery
On Friday I make the space for the energy of a sweat lodge (w/o heat) where we come into prayer as the cast mask gets formed to our face, we then take it off and then we pour plaster into the form of the mask, which seals the energy of the form.
On Saturday we use clay to build the form of the mask, and the image that comes through us. Follow the clay, we have healing time for stretches, yoga and breath work. In the afternoon we paper-maché the clay part of the mask.
On Sunday we paint and decorate the paper-maché mask.
You will leave with with the cast mask, plaster mask, and paper-maché. It is a beautiful transformational time spent with one's self.
