Empowered Arts Programs 2026
BIPOC Arts-Based Coping Skills Group
The Coping Skills group is a virtual expressive arts group for women who are Black, Indigenous and People of Colour. It is also for Two-Spirit and gender diverse individuals who are part of the BIPOC community. We will explore different art materials and art activities that help us quiet our minds and bring our attention to our artwork.
We engage in the present moment through the tactile and versatile nature of art-making. By learning new arts-based coping skills, we can foster mindfulness, promote relaxation and creativity, boost self-esteem, and develop creative strategies for self-regulation. Learning these coping skills allows us to continue to use them in our daily lives. We encourage and support each other, create alongside each other, and share this creative journey with our group.
For more information regarding this coping skills group, please call us at 905-493-5955 or email us at adultprograms@artwithaheart.ca!
