One-day Class Taught in Person at Industry City
Saturday, December 13, 2025
1:00 - 4:00pm ET (NYC Time)
$125 Paid Patreon Members / $150 General Admission
PLEASE NOTE: This class will not be recorded.
Losing a beloved pet or person is so difficult. We feel the absence of their presence in our daily life. We can keep them close through veneration: telling their stories, talking about them, listening to their favorite songs, making their favorite meals, and we can create beautiful art in their honor. Memorial dioramas are small altars or shrines we create for our beloved to memorialize them and their lives. Gone but not forgotten. Structure and sentiment is similar to self altar workshop but for a person or pet.
What is needed to attend this workshop: a photo of a pet or person being honored, an object that belonged to them or reminds you of them.
