Description Each week I will tell a different creation story, drawing on stories from science and a variety of world religions and cultures. Activities will include making up our own creation stories, creation mad libs, imagining humans in new evolved forms, a creating/destroying/re-creating art project, and using modeling dough, wiki stix and other materials to illustrate the stories or create our own worlds and creatures. Each session will include some basic information about the culture or religion within which the story originated. There will be a simple research project in which participants select a favorite creation story (either from those we've discussed or one they find) and present it to the group along with some basic information about it.
