Deep Roots Explorations
September 8 and 9, 6-9pm - $60 for both nights

Monday Night - hold a flint knife from 20,000 BC Denmark. It's still sharp. Try on a skirt from the Bronze Age, write your name in Elder Futhark runes and hear and original rune song "galdor"…that brings you to the Viking Age!

Tuesday Night - See how Vikings changed the rune alphabet, learn a medieval ballad about the use and misuse of runes, and discover how the coming of Christianity shifted Scandinavian spiritual traditions.

Norse Myth and Puppetry
October 25th 10 -Noon
Who lives among the branches of Yggdrasil, the world tree? Well they all come out at Winterfinding, the time of the wild hunt! Create masks and puppets of your favorite Scandinavian creatures and stay safe until winter is done.

Kari is also available for workshops and private sessions.

Praise for Ingebretsen's and Kari!

Dear Ingebretsen’s,

Please thank your management staff for sponsoring the Runes and Advanced Runes classes.
I drove up from Albert Lea to attend both classes and it was well worth the trip. Kari Tauring was an excellent instructor. I only wish we could have had more time.

Again, thank you for providing these classes.

Ha det bra,
Rita Peterson
