SDCRI's HOPE MADE VISIBLE™ Expressive Arts Therapy series via Zoom

Expressive Arts Program co-created with SDCRI, facilitated by Alessandra Colfi, PhD. Open to all patients.

Flags have been used in Nepal and Tibet as a symbolic means to promote peace, compassion, strength and wisdom. Traditionally they are hung outdoors where the wind passes through the flags carrying the message and blessings to all people...words and symbols dissolving into the wind and being spread to all whom the wind touches. All over the world, people affected by cancer have been answering our call to join in making flags as living journals of hope, sharing dreams, victories, losses and concerns.

These flags as symbolic blessings, wishes and visualized strengths, spreading good will and compassion, uplifting all beings.

PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED

All are welcome! No art experience necessary.

This is an 8-week series: attendance to all sessions is recommended to enjoy the benefits of being engaged in the creative process

Suggested Donation: $ 20- to cover material costs
