Live Virtual Healing Workshops Announced

Art & Creativity for Healing proudly announces its first live online Art4Healing® workshops open to the entire community. Participants will experience the Art4Healing® method in a fun and interactive virtual setting allowing the expression of feelings, emotions and ultimately, healing.

Workshops are conducted by certified Art4Healing® facilitators who will lead participants through a series of prompts as they respond by painting abstractly with acrylic colors on
canvas. The method provides an outlet for emotions by associating a colorwith a feeling and each participant will create three unique paintings.

Organizers stress that no previous art experience is necessary, although some workshops require participation in a previous Art4Healing® workshop. The workshops are based on WebEx, an easy-to-use industry leading platform.

All proceeds will support the nonprofit’s Healing Art Box program for underprivileged youth.

Cost per workshop is $49 (supplies not included). To register or for more information, visit www.art4healing.org/live. From now through August 31, 2020, registrants can use the promo code LIVE50 to receive the course for only $24.50.
