Past workshops

Different artists. Shared experiences. A community that keeps growing.

Participants together during a past Riven workshop

A growing
conversation.

Every workshop leaves something behind: a new way of seeing, ideas to keep working on, and people to keep in touch with. These gatherings are part of the story so far.
