WAE Workshops offer a creative space where individuals 16 years and over can work with professional artists, practitioners, and facilitators to develop and expand their interests and skills.
Creating and exploring various forms of art and wellness practices offers participants benefits far beyond the obvious enrichment of their lives. Experienced facilitators come with knowledge of adaptive and neutral techniques which supports each person in their individual goals and aspirations.
WAE Workshops will be offered virtually for the time being.
DDD funding may be possible. Contact Justina Williams at jwilliams@jsdd.org for details.
