Arts in health programs are gaining increasing recognition in Canada as a valuable tool for promoting mental health, well-being, and overall quality of life. Studies have shown that engaging in creative activities can reduce stress, alleviate anxiety and depression, and improve cognitive function and social connectedness.

 
EMBRACING YOUR CREATIVE CYCLE: REST, RENEWAL AND SELF-DISCOVERY THROUGH THE SEASONS

Inspired by the fall season as an important time of transition, develop tools to embrace the natural ebb and flow of your creative energy in times of change.

During this 2-hour workshop designed for artists and non artists alike, learn about the different stages of the creative process and how they relate to personal growth and self- discovery.

Engage in creative and mindfulness exercises that encourage introspection reflective of the season and gain insight into your own creative process, understand the importance of rest and renewal and discover ways to navigate transitions with grace and self-compassion.

No prior artistic experience is necessary.
