Experience Mapping: Understanding Your Story Through Art

March 24, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Free
  • « We Are All Related exhibition
  • We Are All Related Public Kickoff Party »

Free Event | RSVP Required (available on Feb 24th at noon)

Lead and created by local artist Sara Tang, this workshop is a guided creative exercise for participants to chart personal experiences (mental illness, madness, chronic illness, disability, childhood, medical, traumatic, or positive experiences, etc) in a map format, and then to create an expressive art piece and visual poetry piece based on their experiences. Through using a creative medium to think about their experiences in a new way, participants can connect their mental health experiences with other events in their lives and how those may relate to one another.

This workshop is part of Inside Our Minds’ Radical Mental Health Series, sponsored by the Opportunity Fund. Learn more at www.insideourminds.org/radical-mental-health.
