This workshop is designed specifically for Recovery Centers, but could be useful for any group looking to explore and encourage communication, mindfulness, relaxation, positive behaviors, and FUN!
A Visual Thinking Strategies session (which gets the whole group looking at art, but more importantly-listening to each other and building a discussion) is coupled with a hands-on artmaking session. No previous experience is required!
A series of patterns...one leading to another. Meditative and Mindful. Relaxing and Rejuvenating. A whole new set of possibilities...
Proven techniques in drawing and looking at art. Led by trained facilitators. We recognize that these workshops could be life changing and we want to be part of that change!
The "Art of Recovery" is $200-$300 (depending upon number of participants and whether supplies are needed or you purchase/reimburse). This is a 1.5 hour workshop (for up to 25 participants!) within a 15 mile radius of Danvers, MA.
A small travel fee is added for workshops outside this zone
