Howard Center Arts Collective “Flock of Hope”.
Howard Arts Collective
Presentation and Art Workshop
Open to Sisterhood and Temple Members
Thursday, December 10, 11:30 – 1:00
In-Person and on Zoom
The Howard Center Arts Collective provides an opportunity for artists with lived experience of mental health challenges, substance use challenges, and/or developmental disabilities to create and then exhibit their art. Join us as we explore some of their beautiful works drawn from their unique perspectives. Their creations have appeared in the Art Hop, the Fleming Museum, Burlington City Hall and the Patrick Leahy International Airport, just to name a few.
The workshop will end as you let your imagination take flight while you create your own, unique bird to contribute to the Collective’s “Flock of Hope.”
