This November, we’re serving up creativity with a slice of gratitude! Our November Art Workshop is dedicated to honoring the young adult caregivers, co-survivors, and support people who accompany young adults through thick and thin. Together, we’ll be “whipping up” a festive pie garland you can hang in your space as a sweet reminder of community and care.
This workshop is designed for young adults and their young adult support person. Everyone gets to bring one “plus one”: a young adult caregiver, co-survivor, friend, partner, or chosen family member who shows up for you. (Be sure your plus one registers too, so they can get some surprise goodies🎁 as a thank you from the Cactus Cancer Crew!)
Bring your imagination 🎨, your autumn vibes 🍁☕, and a pie pun or two. Each workshop kit comes with enough felt slices to string together a longer full garland, so you and your support person can create side by side and end up with something festive to share. By the end, you’ll have a handmade garland that feels as warm as the community you created it with!
Who: Young adult cancer patients, survivors, and thrivers, and a plus one! Be sure to have your young adult-aged caregiver, co-survivor, or support person register too!
What: Pie Garland Art Workshop, where you’ll cut, color, and string together your own garland of pie slices together with your caregiver/co-survivor/support person!
When: Thursday, November 13 at 4:00 PM- 6:00 PM PT/ 6:00 PM-8:00 PM CT/ 7:00 PM-9:00 PM ET
Where: Zoom, from your home. Pajamas, snacks, and fall coziness encouraged
💬 We know caregiving looks different for everyone, across cultures, identities, and chosen families. If you don’t have someone to bring, that’s okay. We’ll still save you a slice at the table.
Please note: Young adult survivors/patients will register individually, and their young adult caregiver/co-survivor/support person will register. Art supplies will be delivered to a single location (patient/survivor). You will both need to join us on Zoom from the same location to participate in this activity together!
Young adult survivors/patients: please indicate the name of your co-survivor/caregiver/support person in the accessibility box when you sign up, if applicable.
