Workshops & Classes

Julia Shure Presents an art as therapy workshop
Artful Aging. Evolving Happily With Menopause.

This ‘play’shop is open to people between the ages of approximately 40 – 65 years, and who are experiencing the
mental, emotional, and physical effects of peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause.
During their time in this ‘play’shop participants will be guided through a variety of therapeutic art invitations that will
center on the theme of peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause. These invitations will help them focus on
the present moment and regulate their nervous systems. Using their imaginations, participants will explore how to play
with art and art materials can help them feel more grounded in the physical, mental, and emotional changes that have
been happening to them during peri-menopause, menopause, and/or post-menopause. They will connect with others
who are experiencing the same life milestones to feel comfortable, and even positive about these changes. Participants
will have the opportunity to foster well-being in a non-clinical environment. No previous art experience needed, just
curiosity!
Participants will build community through inspiration and exploration of the work on exhibit at the Withrow Common
