From San Diego Made Factory

Join us for a free, conversation-based workshop exploring the ways creativity can support healing, resilience, connection, and emotional well-being. Led by community-based therapist Rachelle Archer of Artful Leadership and resident artist Dia Soto, we’ll create space to talk openly about stress, trauma, growth, and the ways creative practices can become tools for navigating our emotional lives and strengthening our connection to ourselves and our communities. Participants will receive materials to create a personal journal, including a leather cover, a notebook, and other art making supplies. If you feel called to, bring personal materials you'd like to incorporate into your journal, such as: Fabric or textiles Magazine pages or art paper Greeting cards Stickers and stamps Paint pens or other drawing materials Photographs Broken jewelry or small meaningful objects Anything else you'd like to repurpose or make part of your creative process Weather and time permitting, we’ll also take our journals outside for a short neighborhood walk, creating an opportunity to write, draw, observe, and photograph as we explore the relationship between creativity, place, and community. This walk will be slow-paced and will not have any hills to ensure accessibility for everyone. Small bites & water will be provided. *Please note that space is limited to 20 attendees, so please RSVP to hold your spot, and cancel if you decide you cannot attend! _______________________ Acompáñanos en un taller gratuito basado en la conversación, donde exploraremos las maneras en que la creatividad puede apoyar la sanación, la resiliencia, la conexión y el bienestar emocional. Dirigido por la terapeuta comunitaria Rachelle Archer de Artful Leadership y la artista residente Dia Soto, crearemos un espacio para hablar abiertamente sobre el estrés, el trauma, el crecimiento personal y las formas en que las prácticas creativas pueden convertirse en herramientas para navegar nuestras emociones y fortalecer la conexión con nosotros mismos y con nuestras comunidades. Los participantes recibirán materiales para crear un diario personal, incluyendo una cubierta de cuero, un cuaderno y otros materiales de arte. Si así lo deseas, puedes traer materiales personales que te gustaría incorporar a tu diario, como: Telas o textiles Páginas de revistas o papel artístico Tarjetas de felicitación Calcomanías y sellos Marcadores de pintura u otros materiales de dibujo Fotografías Joyería rota u objetos pequeños con significado personal Cualquier otro material que quieras reutilizar o incorporar a tu proceso creativo Si el clima y el tiempo lo permiten, también llevaremos nuestros diarios al aire libre para dar una breve caminata por el vecindario. Será una oportunidad para escribir, dibujar, observar y tomar fotografías mientras exploramos la relación entre la creatividad, el entorno y la comunidad. La caminata será a un ritmo tranquilo y no incluirá colinas, para asegurar que sea accesible para todas las personas. Se ofrecerán bocadillos ligeros y agua.
