INNER BLOOM – WOMEN’S DAY ART THERAPY WORKSHOP Age: 19+

DROP-IN IMPROV WORKSHOP Age: 19Y+ Yes, and! Improv is a theatrical artform where performers do not use a script. But improv isn’t just for those who intend to perform on stage and it’s certainly not just for folks who are (or want to learn to be) funny. Developing improvisational skills supports relationship-building, empathy, confidence, self awareness, public speaking skills and more. Workshops will be progressive for those who attend regularly but still accessible to newcomers. INSTRUCTOR: IMPROV THEATRE LOCATION: ALBION COMMUNITY CENTRE FEE: $10 ADULT $7 SENIORS/STUDENT M 7:00 - 8:30PM JAN 12 M 7:00 - 8:30PM JAN 26 M 7:00 - 8:30PM FEB 9 M 7:00 - 8:30PM FEB 23 M 7:00 - 8:30PM MAR 9 M 7:00 - 8:30PM MAR 23

GOAT MILK SOAP MAKING Age: 19+

Learn to Make Goat Milk Soap using fresh, raw, unprocessed milk from a local farm. In class, students will learn the delicate process of incorporating this perishable ingredient into soap while maintaining the benefits of the lactic acid. Goat milk contains alpha-hydroxy acids such as lactic acid which help remove dead skin cells from your skin’s surface. From pre-blended bases, make a long-lasting oat n’ honey goat milk soap. All supplies included in course fee.

In the following sessions, each of you will create your own stories and learn how writers and artists discuss work with each other to help projects grow. Skills you’ll gain: quick writing and drawing exercises to jumpstart originality, new creative collaboration games and methods to discuss your ideas with others to build on your creative inspirations.

Give yourself a moment to bloom and join us for a 2-hour creative celebration of women! Through art, reflection, and connection, we’ll honor our strength, beauty, and resilience. Using the metaphor of a garden, we’ll explore what we wish to plant, nurture, grow, and allow to blossom in our lives as women. The workshop will also include a short, guided relaxation, offering participants a moment to rest, recharge, and connect more deeply with themselves. No art experience needed – just come as you are and let your creativity flourish.
