As we grieve a loved one’s death, we feel sadness in the absence of their physical presence. Participants will make a huggable heart-shaped fleece pillow, adding fabric from the loved one’s clothing if desired, to help them cope with loss.
This two-part series takes place over two weeks. Masks are required and social distancing will be maintained.
In the first session, the Art Therapist will provide project supplies and instructions, and guide a conversation around aspects of grief and healing. In the second session, participants share their creations, discuss their process, and share stories and memories of their loved ones.
Guided by a Certified Art Therapist, Healing Arts Workshops provide grieving people with a creative outlet for their grief. Workshops are open to the community, and no art experience is necessary.
To register, please contact Certified Art Therapist Mollie Borgione at 216.486.6544 or mborgioorg ne@hospicewr.no later than one week before the first workshop date. In-person workshops are subject to change. Please contact Mollie for workshop status. Admission is free, but a donation of $5 to Hospice of the Western Reserve is suggested. If you’d like to do so, please visit Hospice of the Western Reserve – Ways to Give (hospicewr.org).
