Each participant will get a complete kit to learn to paint with wool, creating this beautiful hedgehog landscape art. This class is meant for beginners. All tools, instructions, and materials will be waiting for you when you arrive—a $ 15 material fee to be paid in cash on the night of your class. Finished pieces measure approximately 6". Melissa started her jewelry business, Gem Lounge Jewelry, in 2009 and is a proud 8th-generation Mainer, having grown up in southern Maine before attending college in New Orleans. Upon graduation, Ms. Evans moved back to New England, eventually settling back in her beloved state of Maine and finding inspiration for her creations all around. While her roots in Maine keep her grounded in the beautiful state, wanderlust brings her on travels around the world.

Soul Sister Circle: Cultivating Happiness from Within
with Elissa Nauman

This is a six-week series to explore the different challenges that we experience in everyday life. We will focus on releasing things that hold us back, such as unnecessary guilt and the wrestling of the "should haves" and the "shouldn't haves." Each week will feature a theme or a topic to dive into, and we will share our thoughts freely without judgment, fixing, or feedback! This empowers women to speak their truths without the fear of being told they are wrong, and it creates a safe space to come together as women to support each other. Elissa "Elle" Nauman, M.S., facilitates guided meditations and women's circles throughout the Portland area and is the creator of Soul Sister Circle Maine. She is an energy healer using the modalities of Reiki and Integrated Energy Therapy® (IET) and is also a certified chakra therapist. It has been said that one million women's circles throughout the world will help shift patriarchy to equality, and it's Elle's passion to contribute to this goal.
