Mental Wellness Group

2SLGBTQ+ Empowered Arts

This virtual expressive arts mental wellness group is about providing an inclusive, welcoming and non-judgemental space for people who identify as 2SLGBTQ+ and/or questioning. We create alongside each other and hold space to explore and express our identities, experiences, challenges, thoughts and emotions. Art is an expression of self and allows us to discover new possibilities, gain personal insights, and give form to what we may be holding inside.

In this supportive environment, we create space to acknowledge and address unique challenges, including experiences of discrimination and stigma, and to celebrate and empower our queer identities through art and community. This group is a place to be seen, heard, accepted and validated. We create meaningful connections with ourselves, the group members, the creative process and our artwork.

There are 6 sessions on tuesdays starting from Tuesday, October 17, to Tuesday, November 21, 2023.
