About this Event

Celebrate LGBT+ History Month with Croydon Pride & Creative Therapies for an Arts Therapy Workshop: Identity & Belonging

What's involved:

Join us for a warm, creative community workshop exploring identity and belonging through art-making, gentle movement, sound and group reflection. This is an experiential space to play, connect, and remember those who came before us; bringing LGBTQIA+ people together to belong, create, and be seen.

The workshop is 2 hours long and will include art-making and invitations for gentle movement and finding voice. All activities are optional, and you’re welcome to take part in ways that feel right for you.

If you have any questions, access needs, or particular mobility requirements, please let us know in advance via DM. We want to do our best to make the space as accessible and welcoming as possible.
