About

Cynthia Grier of EcoLogic Life, and Carolyn Marie and Jack Stephens of Wild Earth Village Builders, are providing a free educational presentation on these environmentally safe and healthy options for home and office remodels, renovations and new building projects. Natural plasters protect walls from wind, rain and fire. They provide a beautiful, durable and non-toxic finish for interiors and exteriors that revive old world traditions from Tuscany to Tokyo.

 

Learn how these ancient methods have been continued in modern Europe and Asia. Discover how limestone comes from the earth, is transformed into plasters, applied on walls and turns back into limestone. Learn how clays from our own soils can be transformed into finishes with beautiful colors and rich, sensuous textures. Lime and clay plasters can even be sculpted or carved to enhance artistic expression. Earthen plasters are easy and fun to work with, easy to clean up, simple to repair and are completely recyclable too!

 

This event is free to the public. The following Saturday, August 15th, the three presenters will be teaching a hands-on workshop in Meiners Oaks.
