Healing Through Art: Pottery

We all know the arts are fun, but they can also serve as a tool of healing. For our Healing Through Art events, we are excited to explore different forms of artistic expression, and how they can help you heal. Aaron & Jill Evans from Yahweh Pottery, a Veteran Owned Business, will discuss the mind-body connection involved in pottery, and the healthy self-care practice of throwing pots on a wheel or sculpting. Finally, they will discuss the Japanese practice of Kintsugi, a technique that serves as a symbol of trauma recovery through repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer.

To be eligible for this group you must be the spouse or partner of an active-duty service member or post-service veteran, a caregiver, a widow/widower or divorced spouse from a veteran or active duty service member, or an active-duty service member or veteran.
