This class will focus on how art can be a medium in the recovery process. Recovery is learning a new way of life. In recovery, a person goes through phases and one of those phases is called the “pink cloud”, this is when you start feeling physically good, the brain becomes less foggy, and everything starts looking rosy. It is a time in the recovery process when one needs to be careful but should also be enjoyed. The artist will ask everyone what that “pink cloud” looks like to them and then they will create it, then everyone can talk about their creation of the “pink cloud." Life still happens and the pink cloud doesn’t last forever but when the rough times come, and they come, it will be good to have a picture of the pink cloud to hold on to. This class is free, and all supplies are provided.

This project is funded in part by a grant from the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts.”
