Free! All welcomePresented with support from MOTHRA Artist-Parent Project and Balancing Act
Teresa Garside will present the first session of a 4-part series exploring caregiving, traditionally undertaken by women, and its impact on artists’ practices. Each session will feature a formal lecture by a caregiver-artist and a focussed discussion. The intention is to provide a space for rigorous discussion regarding the intersections between art and caregiving.
Teresa Garside: Supporting Mental Health Challenges and Art
Teresa Garside is an internationally experienced, award-winning designer and an emerging visual artist. She was a peer facilitator, teaching skills to families with loved ones experiencing mental health challenges, and has been active in street outreach and community volunteerism. Garside is currently participating in the MAWA One-on-One Mentorship Program, which is fostering her growth at the intersection of art and caregiving.
MAWA has also posted a survey asking caregivers about the barriers to their participation and what would alleviate them. (If you cannot attend, find the survey at forms.gle/toZeJLYGZT6LgXQ47 to have your voice heard.)
If your attendance involves child- or elder-care costs, MAWA will reimburse you upon request.
