On Peninsula: Kids & Art Workshop For Bereaved Families Touched By Cancer

Announcement from Peninsula-based Kids & Art Foundation:

HEALING ARTS WORKSHOP FOR BEREAVED FAMILIES TOUCHED BY CANCER

This workshop is offered to families who have lost a child to cancer and/or a child (any age) who has lost an adult caregiver to cancer.

Our facilitators have used and shared collage, singing, writing, dancing and druming as a way of working through loss and grief. This experience has given them a deeper awareness of their own personal healing and a path to help others. Each modality of creative expression presented in this workshop can help grieving families as they strive to find meaning and learn to live with loss.

WHEN: Sunday March 13, 1:00pm-5:30pm *(please note that all five healing art workshops are first come first serve. Each facilitator will be able to work with 10 families).

WHERE: Peninsula Jewish Community Center, Foster City

COST: $15 per family (money collected from ticket sales will go towards helping a family pay for funeral costs.)
