Come join us for a day of reflection and integration. This will be an opportunity for a time of respite and peace.
Bead Making—in the morning we will create colorful polymer beads to share. Each participant will create enough beads for everyone gathered. These will be used to create bracelets— a remembrance of the gathering and community created.
Contemplative Doodling— In the afternoon, we will share an experience of mindfully creating unique works of art using simple drawing and coloring materials. No previous art experience is necessary. These art as prayer experiences are about entering into a process of creative expression for self-discovery.
Facilitators: Mary Slattery, HM and Carrie Vall, CSJ
Mary is an art therapist and counselor who has a heart for helping others to “discover their artist within.” Mary currently ministers with Humility of Mary Housing sites in Akron, Ohio where she shares the healing gift of art with clients and residents.
