A HEALING WORKSHOP FOR THE ASA COMMUNITY

Art-making as Sanctuary

REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

Saturday, March 8, 2025

9Am PT / 11Am CT / 12PM ET / 5Pm GMT / 6PM CET

Creating community space for healing.

Join Nicole for a nurturing 1.5-hour art-based healing workshop created specifically for members of the Adoptees of South America + Extended Latin Americas (ASA) community. In these uncertain times, as many community members express concerns about recent policy changes affecting BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, immigrants, and adoptees, this workshop offers a safe space for processing emotions through creative expression.

Transforming emotions through creative expression.

Through guided therapeutic art-making, we'll explore ways to transform distress, helplessness, and anxiety into empowerment, build community resilience, and nurture hope. No artistic experience necessary—this workshop focuses on the healing process rather than artistic skill.

Please note:

This space is being offered for free to ensure accessibility for all. Nicole asks you to consciously consider and contribute via donation at the highest level you're able, to ensure that Nicole can continue to be able to offer spaces like this in the future: Supporter level ($50+), Standard level ($35), or Access level ($10 or whatever you're able to contribute).

No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
