Runes seem to be everywhere these days, but what are the stories, myths, and history that carried them to us today? In this engaging workshop we will look at the legends of the Germanic tribes, including those we today call "Vikings", and see their wide-ranging influence on the world stage. At the same time we'll be fashioning a primitive leather bag and hand-paint our first set of runes and use them in divination. Gather with us for this celebration of the many stories of Yggdrasill, the world tree, and reach back into the roots of Germanic paganism. Cost is $60 and all materials are provided by your instructor.
