Therapeutic Art: Zine Making Workshops

Pride Month Zine Workshop

Who

This workshop is for adults ages 18+ who identify as LGBTQIA+.

No zine/artistic experience is necessary!

Workshops are facilitated by Ellie Struewing, Sentier’s Client Care Coordinator, who is a multimedia artist with a particular interest in collage and zine-making. See Ellie’s work here.

What

Kick off Pride month by creating a handmade zine (small booklet/mini magazine) that explores, reflects on, and honors your queer identity in the company of peers!

Sentier provides all materials but feel free to bring those scraps of paper and other things that you just can’t get rid of, including things that you associate with pride month and/or your queer identity.

This workshop includes an optional brainstorm and writing session followed by a brief demonstration of a one-page zine making technique. Snacks provided.

Please note: These workshops are artist-led and not facilitated by a therapist.

When

Saturday June 8, 2024 from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm.

Zine workshop for therapists

March 11, 2023 10am – 1pm
Are you a therapist/counselor? Do you want to take time to reflect on what that being in that role means to you? This workshop is designed for therapists/counselors to be in creative community and provide an outlet to turn the thoughts/emotions/challenges/joys that are a part of that role into art.

Home Stretch

Get cozy and creative and embrace the last shivers of winter as we trek through the last stretch of the freezing cold months.
