Friday, August 16 @ 7:30pm CDT

 

Come do a workshop with us IN PERSON! We’ll be doing Oodles of Thoughts: A Doodle Journal Workshop live, where participants can respond to journal prompts with writing, doodling, or a combination of the two as a way to embrace creative coping and expression through art and writing. Focus on self-care and self-expression in an intentionally designed nurturing, supportive, safe environment among your peers!

Saturday, August 17 @ 9:45am- 11:15am CDT

Coffee and Oodles

We’ve got two more weeks of Coffee and Oodles this month! This short, refreshing drop-in program combines our fun art workshop environment with our popular journaling techniques as participants respond to a prompt in whichever medium speaks to them most: drawing or writing. After a few minutes of expressing your creativity, we’ll take turns sharing and responding to one another in a nurturing, supportive, and safe environment that feels like a virtual warm hug. Bring paper, pens, crayons, pencils, or markers!

Wednesday, August 21 @ 9:30-10:00am PT / 11:30am-12:00pm CT / 12:30-1:00pm ET
