Grief can wear us down and weight us down.  How do we stay hopeful when our hearts and spirits are so tired and heavy?

Hope can be nurtured and cultivated, like a very tender baby plant.  Over time, hope grows, gaining strength and resiliency.

Loss comes in many forms.  Death, divorce and breakup, loss to addiction or memory impairment, loss of beloved wild places are all experiences that need to be grieved.

Healthy grieving happens in community, so that our sorrow can be witnessed with love and care, understood without judgement.

Creating art together allows us to express our grief and our fear, increase our hope, and make positive change.

This weekly therapeutic art group offers time and structured support for self-care and creativity, support and connection with ourselves and with others.

You don't need art skills to experience the relaxation and enjoyment of playing with colors, making marks on a page, and just seeing what happens when you let yourself try something different.

Each meeting will offer time to check in around our joys and challenges, an art activity, and time to share in whole group and smaller pairings about our creations and our experience of making art.

All adults are welcome, and can participate as often as you would like.

You can enroll for four, eight or twelve meetings at a time, and schedule the dates that you are able to attend.

Please reach out to Eleanor if you have any questions.
