The events of recent weeks, though not new, have reopened wounds and reignited pain and passion that many of us have been holding for a long time. Many of us are in roles where we are holding space for others whether it be in our families, in our work, or in our community and where people look to us for answers. We find purpose in being a source of support and comfort for those around us but we might be feeling our own sense of being out of control, powerless, and helpless.

In this workshop series, you will reconnect with your resilience. Creatively explore your own stories through multimodal art activities including abstract drawing, writing, and collage. There are no mistakes in art! You will be invited to bring curiosity and creativity. Topics include developing your identity as a helper, recognizing and overcoming challenges, and cultivating joy.

Individuals and groups are welcome!
