Register for Trauma & Arts-Centered Healing Workshops
Mass Cultural Council is offering two workshops focused on understanding trauma and supporting healing in our community.

An Introduction to Trauma-Informed Approaches: Considering trauma responsiveness, healing, and “do no harm” in arts-based programs and activities. (March 26)
Trauma, Social Justice, the Arts, and Healing: Discussion on the role of the arts in addressing trauma and supporting health through advocacy, storytelling, narrative change, and social connection. (April 9)
