Clearing Your Spiritual Chametz

10:00 - 12:00, an Atlanta forest!

Get ready for Passover by clearing your spiritual chametz. This year we’ll take to the forest for a session of “forest-bathing” inspired practices and chanting. This is not a Ma’ayan Spiritual Arts event. This is just me but I am lifting it up here so you can know about it :) Registration coming soon!

The Art of Tea and Torah!

1-:00 - 12:00, CBH

Join me for a soulful Shabbat pause with tea warming our hands, Torah stirring our minds, and art opening our hearts. Together we’ll explore this week’s parsha through conversation and creative practice. No art experience needed! Bring your curiosity and a willingness to let your hands speak.

B’Yachad – Reconstructing Judaism’s Convention

Philadelphia

Women of the Hebrew Bible - Step into the stories of the women of the Bible — as bold, complex individuals whose voices still echo in our lives today. Together, we’ll engage Biblical text, midrash, poetry, and art through a feminist, justice-centered lens that reclaims and reimagines these women’s lives. This is more than a study — it’s an invitation. As we explore how our biblical ancestors navigated power, identity, and faith, you’ll be invited to respond with your own voice. Through guided writing or art-making, you’ll create work that brings new life to their stories — and your own.

Purim off Ponce!!

Presented by SOJOURN

Humbled to be an honoree at the best costume party around! Expect music, mischief, and megillah — all to support SOJOURN’s mission of education, advocacy, and inclusion across the South.

“McKenzie’s magic is in her creativity and how she holds space for everyone to participate in their own way. She thought of every little detail to make th event special…Everyone left the evening feeling grounded and part of something larger than themselves and my daughter felt extraordinarily loved and supported.”

-Ariela F. from a Red Thread ceremony for her daughter

“I will never forget the power of my conversion thanks to the power of McKenzie’s skills. Her intuitive, artistic way of creating, together with her deep understanding of Jewish ritual and tradition, birthed an experience far beyond what I could have imagined. McKenzie saw the inherent majesty and meaning in the conversion process and made it not only visible, but embodied. We became an ecstatic bunch of of women laughing and singing together in such a simcha!”

-Amy L from her conversion to Judaism ceremony

I appreciate that you encourage us to be real, and not pretend that everything and everyone in our lives are just great.

I love that we are encouraged to go deep and not just stay on the surface.

I love how you share your own stuff and allow yourself to be vulnerable.

I love how you encourage imperfection without apology.

I love how you create a safe space for us to process our fears, hopes and dreams.

I love how you respect yourself and others with compassion.

I love how you encourage our creativity.

For most of my life I created spaces for other people to make art but never made space for my own. I finally prioritized my art making around 2015. Initially my art provided comfort and a creative outlet but then! I went all in and art making became central to both my spiritual practice and my coping mechanisms. Art helped me make sense of the political environment, got me through Covid and the sudden death of my mother. I realized that my own experiences could benefit others and I started offering art making experiences and teaching art at various gatherings. It’s been full steam ahead ever since!

My work is available for purchase; both originals as well as prints. See something you love? Email me and we can get you a print.
