What

This offering is an opportunity to play with our grief and its many facets. Play allows us to be curious with our grief and explore what parts of ourselves might often feel overlooked. Grief is such a complex part of living and can be accessed with creative exploration. This space is making room for that curiosity and seeing how our grief responds to an expressive outlet.


As adults we are conditioned to distance ourselves from play, this is a chance for us to reclaim play in our lives.


During our time you can choose your own adventure:

*puppet grief play

*memorial stitching

*breathwork
