Celebrating Life Cycles- Collage Workshops

Celebrating Life Cycles Community Art Workshops take place alongside the Bardo ∞ Project art exhibitions in gallery spaces. The first was a week-long artist residency at the Grady Alexis Gallery at El Taller Latino in East Harlem in 2018. The free, all ages, drop-in workshops provide all of the beautiful art making materials sourced at Materials for the Arts, and are designed to spark public dialogue about life cycles and what constitutes compassionate end of life care. The community experiences creativity, inspiration and information about an important topic that affects us all. Sharing of stories of loss and community are encouraged and the participants get to keep their art works. Advocacy materials on end of life care planning information were available to the public from Compassion and Choices “Conversation Project” starter kits, New York Living Will forms, and Healthcare Proxy forms.
