A gentle, hands-on collage workshop to explore self-expression for survivors of domestic abuse & sexual violence
About this Event

Join Niamh Barry and fellow survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence for a gentle, hands-on collage workshop where you’ll explore self-expression through images, colours, and simple creative prompts. Using magazines, textures, and intuitive composition, participants are invited to create personal collages that reflect themes of strength, resilience, and inner connection.

No artistic experience is needed - session offers a calm, supportive space to reflect, create, and connect with others at your own pace.
