Event Details

Have you experienced loss and you are still trying to find words to define it? Have you busied yourself to avoid thinking about it? Have you been thinking of starting a journal to write some of your thoughts down? If so, please join guest artist Claudine Cheatem for class Weep Wail Write, a class that uses creative writing to help individuals process grief. 

From Claudine, "This class was birthed in me as I struggled to process my own feelings and emotions while struggling with the death of my eldest son. My class provides a safe space for participants to reflect on their grief and find the words to express it."

Ages 18+, registration required.
