Grief is love that has nowhere to go; art is our access… bringing light to dark places.
Join artist, grief doula, and educator Adrienne Mikulka of Art.Heals.Grief.com for a gentle three-Saturday gathering exploring grief through artmaking, reflection, and community witness. Rooted in the companioning philosophy of Alan Wolfelt, this workshop invites participants to honor loss rather than avoid it, and to discover meaningful ways to mourn on purpose and restore our capacity to love. Through guided art experiences, reflective writing, conversation, and ritual, women will create meaningful works that help give shape and movement to grief. Together we will explore:
- the difference between grief and mourning
- memory and continuing bonds
- grief bursts and linking objects
- creative expression as a language for sorrow and love
- community witness and compassionate listening
- personal mourning practices for life beyond the workshop
