Today was my last workshop facilitation with the Barbara Schlifer Commemorative Clinic, Open Studio. Today we explored transformation, rebirth and renewal with butterflies as the focal point. It is always a treasure working with women in trauma with art being a vehicle for expression. It was truly a pleasure working with the dedicated staff. Thank you Jacqueline, Maha, Michelle (Jane Tweed), Natashca, Camille and everyone who helped the workshops run smoothly. It is always a pleasure and can't wait to work with you again.

At Barbra Schlifer Clinic Open Studio Drop-In Project I had the honor to see the impact of my art practice on fellow women in trauma and to feel the love of these women who like me, were on a journey to get back to themselves. There we some happy tears shed and lots of loving support too. Honestly, this is the main reason I do what I do to give back. Please check out the last installment of the Open Studio Drop-In Project on Saturday March 30th from 11am - 1pm with Suzanne Thompson. Tokens are available to those who need them.
