The White Dove with Mindy Upton on Sunday April 28th, 2024 (5:00pm - 6:30pm Eastern)
​

White doves are symbolic of new beginnings, peace, luck and prosperity and harmony. In Mythology the white dove is associated with the gods and goddesses of love. The goddesses Inanna Astarte and Atargatis are all depicted with doves.  In the epic of Gilgamesh the dove was released to search for the end of the deluge.  In Slavic folklore, doves were believed to conduct the souls of the dead to heaven.  The dove was considered a sacred animal and they have been released at the Olympic games as a symbol of peace among the participating nations. The dove remains to be the emblem of peace to this day.

It is believed to be a peaceful and loving message from the universe if you see a dove flying in the sky.

Join me in creating this loving dove to radiate peace throughout our kindergartens and beyond. We will use dry felting technique to create a marionette or finger puppet. As we say in our kindergarten when we snuff our candles “The world needs love, let us spread Peace to everyone in the world.” More ...
