Program Description
Event Details
Join Amoula the Doula at the library! Whether you are trying to conceive, expectant parents, parents, or have had experience with birth or pregnancy loss, you are invited to participate in some birth art!
Birth Art is a journey that takes you from external understanding to deeper, inner knowing. In this session, we explore self-discovery through art, using non-verbal practices to express the emotions surrounding pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Creating art slows down fleeting thoughts and images, allowing you to truly see and connect with your feelings. We return to the simplicity of childhood, when you first picked up a pen and drew what came from your mind and heart. No prior art or drawing experience is required!
