You are warmly invited to sit in circle and weave and listen to story with us.
Bring your stories, your hands and your heart.

You will be guided in some simple weaving techniques, listen to sacred stories and if you like share some of your own.  This gentle and grounding gathering brings people together through creativity, story and connection. You will learn to weave onto a forked stick using simple natural fibres, a symbolic act that invites connection to your own roots, heritage and a deeper sense of belonging.

During the circle you will be invited to share something of your own cultural story, a tradition you hold, a journey your family has made, or a piece of wisdom you carry. You may wish to often a poem, a song or a heartfelt truth. You will be witnessed and held in a loving co created space. Together we create a living canopy of woven stories, each stick a unique expression of memory, meaning and presence.  All cultures, all voices and stories are welcome.

Sarah will share a story from her lineage, The women of the wells.

The event will be co facilitated by Daniella Hogarth and Sarah Miller

Date: Saturday 8 November 2025
Time  2.00 to 5.00 pm- Please arrive from 1.45 so we can start on time.

Please feel free to bring along any nature items you want to weave into your piece such as flowers, feathers, grasses etc. We will provide materials so this is extra materials you particularly want woven in.

Offerings

1:1 Sessions

Are you feeling stuck, or going through a challenging transition or time? Sarah offers 1:1 sessions based on the modality of School of Shamanic Womancraft which recognises that you have the answers within. Using shamanic womancraft processes you can bring awareness to the patterns and story of your rites of passage and your woundings – seeing them as opportunities for growth and initiation.

Ritual & Performance

I works in collaboration with women, and gender diverse people to co-create sacred ceremonies and ritual. My ritual work focuses on creating mytho- poetic and embodied stories of rites of passage and deepening our connection to the earth. I also work with artists and the wider community to create shared rituals and performance in honour of the earth, and to support the restoration of ceremony, art & ritual in our lives.

Storytelling & Writing

I am a storyteller, writer and emerging playwright. I believe that stories can change the world. As the writer Barry Lopez said, "Everything is held together with stories. That is all that is holding us together, stories and compassion."
I run a free Storytelling by the Fire session monthly in Highett. You can read some of my writing here, and sign up to my newsletter for my monthly writing and musings.
