Various workshops and classes will be offered to include art journaling, painting, beading, and general crafts for individuals, groups, and families.

Creating an exciting and fun environment is never a challenge in our classes. The goal is for all of the clients to leave with a smile and a happier outlook on the day. It is certainly achieved!

We currently offer classes such as String Painting, Acrylic Pours, and Slime Making! Art can provide stress relief, relaxation, escape, and most importantly, lots of fun. We hope to provide these things to each and every client, while simultaneously giving them the opportunity to create their own masterpieces!

Welcome to the Kindness Card Challenge!

The Kindness Card Toolbox contains materials for any creative skill level. Besides the cards and envelopes there are markers, colored pencils, pre-cut messages, glue sticks, and stickers. When creating your message, don’t worry about your artistic abilities, but rather consider the love, care, and kindness you are putting into your creation! Decorate the front side of the card only and the envelope if you wish. It is okay to sign your first name on your card, but do not include your last name. When you are finished, please make sure to put all caps back on the markers and all materials in their respective bins.

Thank your participating in this effort to foster compassion and connection in the world through a simple act of kindness. Keep in mind that you are creating a card for a youth who is experiencing difficulties with mental health. The young person who receives your card is in treatment at an inpatient facility. Your card is special because it communicates encouragement, compassion, and most importantly that they matter in this world.
