SUMMARY:Summer Camp at the Stevie: Two Day Incense Immersion with Persephenie
DESCRIPTION:Join the Wende for Summer Camp at the Stevie\, a hands-on art making series situated in a lush oasis in the middle of Culver City. \nWhat is the Stevie? \nTucked away on the southwestern side of the Glorya Kaufman Community Center\, the Stevie is a “tiny house” turned creative outpost. Surrounded by palms and desert landscaping\, it serves as both an artist residency space and an intimate venue for programs\, gatherings\, and experimental events on its expansive outdoor deck. The Stevie was made possible by a transformative contribution from Steve and Jadwiga Markoff. \nTwo Day Incense Immersion with Persephenie \nAugust 23 & 24\, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. \nThe Two Day Incense Immersion is an in-depth study of the art\, history\, and materials used in incense. \nThis is a hands-on course where you’ll learn the craft of artisanal incense. \nDAY ONE: Raw Materials\, Slide Show\, & Combustible Incense \nDay one we’ll start by meeting herbs\, learning about their context in the history and making of incense\, while enjoying a rich visual slideshow. The latter part of the day focus’s on crafting botanical combustible incense\, incorporating the variety of herbs you learned about in the morning. We’ll burn an assortment of materials\, learn to mix and make an aromatic incense dough\, and shape incense into cones and sticks. You’ll learn how incense is made\, ratios\, and about materials. \nDAY TWO: Warming Incense\, Incense as a Ritual\, and Making Incense Pastilles \nThere are two types of incense\, incense you warm\, and incense you burn. Day Two focus’s on non-combustible incense that’s meant to be warmed\, not burned. On the second day\, in conjunction with another colorful slideshow\, you’ll learn how to warm incense as a ritual\, about ancient incense tools and accruements\, and then at the latter part of the day\, you’ll create non-combustible incense pastilles. \nINCLUDED: \nMeet a variety of raw herbs and materials used for incense making. \nA rich visual slide show highlighting herbs\, incense accruements\, and incense history\, \nLearn about where the materials came from and their importance in myth\, commerce\, and culture. \nLearn about incense history as medicine\, in sacred offerings\, religion\, and aesthetics. \nLearn how to process herbs and resins\, create incense recipes\, and the importance of order when making your own recipes. \nLearn about different types of incense\, including incense that’s heated\, not burned. \nCraft your own botanical incense using herbs\, woods\, resins and spices from around the world. \nAll Materials and Tools included. \nMATERIALS COST: $45 \nDue to generous funding\, the Wende Museum and Persephenie are able to offer the two day incense course with only a materials fee. \nAn ADA-accessible entrance to the Glorya Kaufman Community Center is available through the garden gate from the parking lot. It will open approximately 30 minutes before the program begins.
