Workshops at events are a wonderful way to share knowledge among our community. It is up to us to educate each other and spread our joys and passions. If you are enthusiastic about a topic, chances are someone else in the community will share that enthusiasm. Please consider becoming a part of our sharing and learning community by offering a workshop or class!
Our presenters are an incredibly important part of each event! If you have ideas for a workshop or programming that you would like to share with the Wisteria, please click below to fill out an application.
Guidelines for Workshops:
Can be 45-90 minutes. If you need more time, consider offering a multi-part workshop.
Some sites have electricity available; most do not. Keep this in mind when selecting a workshop location.
We request that only special or ritualistic workshops in the evenings, please keep this in mind when selecting a time.
Once you submit your application, you can expect an email in 5-7 days confirming we received your application. Once the application deadlines have passed, we will review, schedule and discuss placement of our programming and you will receive a second email in mid-late September regarding your workshops time and place. Upon arrival, you will be given a program which will list your workshop’s location.
Note that if you are chosen to present a workshop at an event, you will be supplied with free entry for yourself and one other guest.
