Honey Bee Keeping and Your Creative Self with Kalliope Egloff

Honey Bee Keeping and Your Creative Self with Kalliope Egloff

Presented by Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill at Truro Center for the Arts

You'll also learn about honey bees and their history through art, myth and legend.  Honey bees have shown up on cave and temple walls, on cartouches and canvases, and are intertwined with the Mother Goddess of many religions and spiritual practices across the globe.

We will explore the nutritional benefits; art/craft opportunities; and home and beauty products derived from honey bee by-products (honey, wax, pollen, propolis, and such-like).  You will learn how to plant and pollinator garden, and how to support honey bee health.  Whether journaling, paint, filming or whatnot, the ancient art of beekeeping will stoke your genius!

Kalliope Erin Egloff is President of the Barnstable County Beekeepers' Association; president of Honeypot Hives, with hives in Provincetown, Mashie, and Barnstable; and is the beekeeper at Cape Cod Organic Farm.  Calliope is the Chair of the Mashpee Board of Health; serves on the board of directors for 4H Cape Farley and the Cape Cod Hoarding Task Force; and she operates the Barnstable County Hazardous Materials Program, "Love Your Local Water."  She lives in Mashie and Provincetown with her family.
