Art & Wellness: A Return to Self: Weaving Alignments with Spirit by Queer Sol Collective
August 27, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Session 3
Rooted in Remembrance
In part three of this five-part series, we ask, “what are your roots, and how are you cultivating them?” Join us, as we gather in-community under the trees. Take your shoes off, bring a writing tool/journal/sketch pad and dive deeper into introspection on the topics of “Roots.” This hybrid model of facilitation will include conventions of storytelling, movement, and our senses.
*A yoga mat and/or blanket are required. We will be outside, so please bring water and sunblock. No experience is necessary to participate. All ages are welcome.
