Blown away by the amazing results from last weekend's Rotto Grotto grotto workshop at John Michael Kohler Arts Center! Thanks to the organizers and participants. Attendees were able to make their own personal grottoes from Fiberglass grotto shells I created. Participants brought many of their own materials that had personal significance to them . I’m really pleased with the varied and creative results. I hope to hold some more workshops in the future, so please stay posted on my instagram @rottogrotto and facebook page .
