Sculpting the Sacred: Cycle Wisdom and Creative Ritual

With Sasha Botanica and Diana Wassef

This collaborative workshop weaves menstrual cycle wisdom with hands-on creative ritual. Guided by Diana’s teachings on the menstrual cycle and natural fertility, and Sasha’s Sculpting the Sacred practice, participants will explore the cyclical nature of the body through both learning and making.

Working with clay as a devotional material, participants will sculpt a goddess or yoni-inspired figure for their altar—an embodied symbol of their inner seasons, creativity, and intuitive knowing. The emphasis is on presence rather than perfection, honoring making as a slow, cyclical process rather than a polished outcome.

This workshop offers a grounded space to deepen connection with the body, engage creativity as ritual, and leave with both practical cycle insight and a hand-crafted figurine infused with personal meaning. Nourishing snacks and herbal tea blends will be provided. Open to women of all ages. No prior art experience is necessary. Sculpted pieces will be fired in Newburgh, NY to be picked up at a later date. 

This workshop will be held at Circle Creative Collective in New Paltz NY
