Attending To Anger With Art (ONLINE)

SHAUNA KAENDO| BFA, RCAT   |Art therapist in Victoria BC (unceded /stolen traditional and ancestral territories of the Lekwungen/Songhees & Esquimalt peoples).CREATIVITY BEGINS BEFORE WE HAVE ART MATERIALS IN OUR HANDS. It begins with personal and collective agency, with the decision(s) that we make to seek community, support, and space. It feels important to describe and recognize creativity as more than an art-related process, but also a way that we can live, imagine, understand, and create change in our lives.

HEY SHAUNA ART THERAPY

This is a 2-hour (online) therapeutic art-making workshop.

In this workshop, we're going to talk about and explore ways to SHOW UP for (and in) our anger ...with our art. Giving it some space, expression, and containment. Not trying to "fix" it, tamp it down, or send it away. But honouring it - with creative expression, release, grounding, transformation. Anger is not a problem ...we have a LOT of things to be legitimately angry about. Clenching it in, ignoring it, or shaming ourselves for it ...are what we want to move away from. And moving towards giving ourselves pockets of creative release, so it's not bubbling up and and causing harm to ourselves or others (imploding or exploding).We'll get curious about ways that we can use art, and creative process to work with (and through) our anger. Practice and process as resources that we can reach for when anger rises up, as it reasonably will.NO experience with art or art-making is required to attend.__________________________ATTENDING TO ANGER WITH ARTSat Mar 2110am-12pm PT, Pacific Time (<a href="https://dateful.com/time-zone-converter?t=10am&amp;d=2026-03-21&amp;tz2=PST-PDT-Pacific-Time" title="https://dateful.com/time-zone-converter?t=5pm&amp;d=2026-03-16&amp;tz2=PST-PDT-Pacific-Time" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">time zone converter</a>)Sliding scale payment options__________________________<h3>LOCATION:</h3>This is an online (Zoom) event.See <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/o/hey-shauna-art-therapy-16634504104" title="https://www.eventbrite.ca/o/hey-shauna-art-therapy-16634504104" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">my other offerings</a>.__________________________<h3>MATERIALS LIST:</h3>Gather an assortment of materials.
