“Art bids us touch and taste and hear and see the world.”  -W.B. Yeats

[image]An 8 week art experience for anyone dealing with cancer.  Participants may have the opportunity to create their own altars, memory boxes, hand-made journal books, mandalas, and meditation beads, face masks, and quilt squares No artistic experience is necessary to participate - only a willingness to express who each person is at this moment in time and a willingness to share your story. 

[image]This workshop is held for 2 hours each week at 8 week cycles - free of charge.  These workshops are extremely popular - you must sign up to participate.
