The group is designed to connect people to their creativity and inner resources and raise self-awareness. Participants will have a chance to explore different materials and themes while guided and supported by the facilitators. No previous art experience is necessary.

Materials are supplied. However, it is important that you have materials that YOU feel comfortable using, that will help you express your life and culture. So, please feel free to bring your familiar materials.
Please do bring a folder; it is important to have a confidential, place to store your work safely for the duration of the sessions and beyond if possible. You can buy a posterboard from the Dollar store for about a dollar cut in half and tape or staple together on 3 sides, so you can store your work inside.
