Let's Start with Art: Exploring Healing through Creativity is a six-week creative healing workshop that provides a form of healing for survivors to explore. This creative healing workshop is meant to provide survivors an alternative way of exploring healing, through the use of art and writing. In this workshop series, participants will be guided through different ways of expressing one’s self and practicing self care through the power of drawing, painting, collaging, and writing.

Each week the workshop series will consist of a group check in and check out, some encouraging words/poems, and a guide through different art techniques and writing prompts to further self care. In community, participants will be able to explore creative healing in this six-week workshop series and will come out empowered with another healing tool for their healing toolkit.

Let's Start with Art: Exploring Healing through Creativity is a limited time workshop series that will be held during Winter quarter. The first workshop will start on Wednesday, January 24th, 2024.

The workshop series will be facilitated by our CARE Healing Peer.
