Creating Space Workshops

Creating Space for our Grief and our Creativity

Creative workshops begin and end with a grief support group that bookends a workshop in which you will engage in a hands-on creative activity. In all groups, we listen without advice or judgement and validate each other's pain and sharing style. No artistic skills required.

All proceeds go to activities for suicide loss survivors, including a scholarship fund for future workshops.

A portion of the proceeds will support the All Souls Church for giving us a physical space to come together. 

We are shifting this In-Person Support group to make space for all relation suicide loss survivors. Ages 18 and up.

Starts Saturday March 1, 2025

Memory Keepers is a workshop open to all suicide loss survivors. As we work with our hands, we will explore ways of creating a unique accordion style and one of a kind handmade book with pockets that will become the vessel to hold memories. In doing this we will touch on our grief in a safe creative space.

Date TBA

We are opening a special session for you to work with family members. Bring your surviving child(ren) (ages 8 and up) or other close family members to make your own Teddy Bear Kit. This for-purchase workshop includes one Teddy Bear Kit. Additional kits can be purchased separately if more than one child attends and would like to take home a kit.
