Women's Group: An Evening With SoulCollage®
2024-01-20 18:00 - 20:00
Join us as we set aside an evening where we can come together in community to learn more about ourselves and each other. Through a process called SoulCollage®, created by therapist Seena Frost more than 20 years ago, we will select random images to collage onto a card that will help us to map our inner landscapes and connect with the wisest parts of ourselves. No artistic experience is needed or required and in fact by using this process, everyone becomes an instant artist and also explorers of Soul. Please bring a small snack to share.
