Labyrinth Master Class with Robert Ferre

April 18-20, 2008

Labyrinth-Enterprises Studio
2725 S. Jefferson Avenue
St. Louis, MO 63118

This intensive training is designed to give participants the full range of skills necessary to organize or present labyrinth events and ceremonies, to be a labyrinth docent at retreat centers or churches that have labyrinth programs, and to construct temporary labyrinths. A considerable body of information will be presented, designed to broaden one's understanding and practical utilization of labyrinths.

Being held at our home base, we show the group how we make canvas labyrinths, as well as displaying many of our labyrinth-making tools. Everyone has hands-on experience in making labyrinth patterns in several different ways, working on the tables, the floor, the parking lot, and even the roof.

No one has the depth and range of experience in building labyrinths that we have at Labyrinth Enterprises. When I do my facilitator trainings, the favorite part for most people is the opportunity to learn how to make labyrinths. It's my favorite part, too. So, I have decided to offer a seminar exclusively about making labyrinths, to be held in our St. Louis studio. The cost is $250, with participation restricted to 20 people. Come join us, and learn to be a competant labyrinth maker.

The program takes place Saturday and Sunday. Since many people will arrive on Friday afternoon, we will have a get together at the studio on Friday evening, at which Robert will talk about his life as a labyrinth maker. The lodging is not within walking distance. Perhaps participants can coordinate so that they can share the use of a rental car.

The seminar will cover all aspects of labrinth making, including geometry, materials, costs, tools, and how to work with institutions. The instruction will cover the basics quickly, and advance to levels that would be appropriate for experienced labyrinth workers. So, beginners are welcomed, but must understand that we will zip right along in our teaching. There will be canvas labyrinths under production in the studio during the seminar, for participants to observe. Presentations will include PowerPoint and show-and-tell (various tools and techniques). If you love labyrinths and want to make more of them, this is definitely the training for you.
