Session
Once-a-week sessions last six to eight weeks.
Vets Art Group
Visual Art with Jessi & Christy*
Art making in a community setting allows veterans to create new connections with other participants, giving them freedom to share their stories in a creative and safe environment. This group will have an open-studio format with the opportunity to learn new art techniques.
At the start of each session there will be a short demonstration to introduce a new art technique. The teaching artist will also ensure time for participants to share their personal or acquired techniques with the group if desired.
* Jessi and Christy will alternate each week as instructor

Storycrafting for Vets (Online)
Creative Writing with Beth
You have a story.
It lives inside you.
It may feel like
buzzing bees sometimes or like a concrete block at other times.
Crafting your story
moves the energy; unplugs, quiets, and lightens.
This is your
invitation to move that story from your heart, mind, gut to your lips, the
page, or a larger platform.
You will receive:
*4 different ways to start assembling your story
*At least one complete story of your own
*Encouragement from other storytellers
*The chance to test-run your own short story in a small and safe setting
Gathering,
assembling, and sharing (even a little bit of) your story promises to be
healing, awakening and transformational...for yourself first, and others
later.
Tuesdays from 4 - 5 pm
