Make Your Own Condolence Card: Expressive Arts Workshop

Do you ever wish that condolence cards felt as unique as your individual loss? Whether it’s the loss of income, purpose, identity, the role of caregiving, your imagined future, your faith, certain relationships, or your confidence, these losses are incredibly real and painful. Unfortunately, these losses often feel invisible because they are rarely acknowledged by others. During this workshop, you will have the opportunity to learn more about secondary losses, identify and explore your own secondary losses, and create condolence cards honoring your secondary losses.
Registration is required. Call 919-719-7199.
