A Weekend of Craftsmanship & Spirit

A Hoodoo doll is more than fabric, thread, and stuffing. It is a spiritual tool created with intention, prayer, and purpose.

During this immersive weekend, you'll learn how to thoughtfully construct your doll on the first day, then awaken and begin building a relationship with it on All Saints' Day. You'll leave with not only a completed Hoodoo doll, but also the knowledge and confidence to continue working with it long after the workshop has ended.
