This makes art a powerful tool in the healing process. \nAny and all survivors are invited to join us for this free\, virtual event. Join a group of survivors led by the Survivors.org staff on the last Wednesday of every month as we follow different art prompts to explore our emotions around our trauma and experiences as survivors. Survivors are encouraged to participate in the group however they feel most comfortable\, and sharing your art is not required. Registering once gains you access to all upcoming Survivors.org Art Workshops and our Survivor Support Newsletter\, so you will only need to register one time. \nBe sure to read our Trauma-Informed Art Workshop Guidelines before you participate in groups. Survivors.org reserves the right to remove anyone who is unable to adhere to our guidelines from participating in any of our support spaces in order to maintain as safe of a space as possible. \nThis group is not for therapy purposes. Resources will be provided to participants for emergency support.
