SUMMARY:Radical Writing Space
DESCRIPTION:This program is being offered virtually through Zoom. In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA\n\nWherever you are on life’s journey\, there are times when it can feel impossible to commit to a recurring program like a workshop series. Radical Writing Space is our answer to this conundrum of wanting to attend for some radical self-care\, but struggling to commit.\n \nClinical studies have documented the healing psychological and psychical impacts of writing within a safe and sacred space. On the second Friday of each month\, drop in for one hour for Radical Writing Space and join us for inspiring writing prompts\, time to write\, and time to share with one another about your experience of putting your most radical emotions\, feelings\, and experiences on paper.\n \nThe part that makes this writing so “radical” is that we create a safe space for it all — raw feelings\, emotions\, experiences — and\, together\, we give voice to them in a supportive\, nonjudgmental environment.\n\n \nThis healing program offers a place for supporting one another and we stay clear of writing critique. Come and experience writing and sharing together.\n\n\n\nRadical Writing Space will be hosted Monthly on the 2nd Friday from 11am – 12:30pm ET. No previous writing experience necessary. Drop-ins welcome!\n\nUpcoming Dates: \n\n 	May 12\n 	June 9\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA\n\nMindy Brodsky specializes in trauma-informed\, strengths-based counseling with a passion for integrative health and healing. Mindy honors her clients as the experts of their lives\, and she strives to provide a supportive and safe environment.\n\nAfter a career in social justice advocacy and her own challenging health journey\, Mindy aspires to meet her clients where they are to help them achieve their goals.

SUMMARY:Stitched Together
DESCRIPTION:This program is being offered virtually through Zoom. In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Denise Feldman\n\nStitched Together\nWe’re all part of the same cloth… \n\nJoin us for a Stitching Circle! Denise Feldman\, a local mixed-media artist and cancer thriver\, hosts this monthly gathering in (virtual) community as we talk and stitch—a powerful meditative and healing practice. Gathering as many have done for centuries\, Denise will share tips and ideas for using needle and thread to bring joy and creativity to our everyday lives. Use her ideas to jump start your own\, or bring your favorite hand work projects and join us for community stitching time!\n \nThis community stitching circle is for you! For example\, maybe you’ve been hand sewing for years; you might be interested in exploring the recent revival of the “slow-stitch” movement; maybe you are are a needle pointer with a project to finish. Or\, you might simply enjoy the meditative nature of hand making with needle and thread.\n \nYou may consider bringing:\n\n 	needles and thread\,\n 	an old pair of jeans or other clothing that was headed to charity\,\n 	left over fabric from another project\,\n 	or simply bring yourself for some (virtual) time in community.\n\n\n\n\n\nStitched Together will be offered Monthly on Saturdays 10:00 – 11:30am ET. \n\nUpcoming Dates: \n\n 	May 13\n 	June `10\n\nSuggested Donation: $10\n\n\n\nAbout Denise Feldman\nDenise Feldman is a local mixed media artist who discovered the power of creativity as a healing practice after her treatment for breast cancer in 2014. As a creative ‘dabbler’ who loves working with various materials and surfaces\, Denise shares her mixed media processes and soulful perspective with the hope of inspiring others to tell their stories ‘on and off the page’ and clear space for life’s chapters yet to come.\n\n“My philosophy is simply that telling our stories helps us heal by giving us the space to process our own experiences and connect with each other. Getting our stories out from our hearts and our heads helps make room for the next chapter to happen…the one just waiting there in the wings.” ~Denise

In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA\n\nWherever you are on life’s journey\, there are times when it can feel impossible to commit to a recurring program like a workshop series. Radical Writing Space is our answer to this conundrum of wanting to attend for some radical self-care\, but struggling to commit.\n \nClinical studies have documented the healing psychological and psychical impacts of writing within a safe and sacred space. On the second Friday of each month\, drop in for one hour for Radical Writing Space and join us for inspiring writing prompts\, time to write\, and time to share with one another about your experience of putting your most radical emotions\, feelings\, and experiences on paper.\n \nThe part that makes this writing so “radical” is that we create a safe space for it all — raw feelings\, emotions\, experiences — and\, together\, we give voice to them in a supportive\, nonjudgmental environment.\n\n \nThis healing program offers a place for supporting one another and we stay clear of writing critique. Come and experience writing and sharing together.\n\n\n\nRadical Writing Space will be hosted Monthly on the 2nd Friday from 11am – 12:30pm ET. No previous writing experience necessary. Drop-ins welcome!\n\nUpcoming Dates: \n\n 	June 9\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA\n\nMindy Brodsky specializes in trauma-informed\, strengths-based counseling with a passion for integrative health and healing. Mindy honors her clients as the experts of their lives\, and she strives to provide a supportive and safe environment.\n\nAfter a career in social justice advocacy and her own challenging health journey\, Mindy aspires to meet her clients where they are to help them achieve their goals.

DESCRIPTION:This program is being offered virtually through Zoom. In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Denise Feldman\n\nStitched Together\nWe’re all part of the same cloth… \n\nJoin us for a Stitching Circle! Denise Feldman\, a local mixed-media artist and cancer thriver\, hosts this monthly gathering in (virtual) community as we talk and stitch—a powerful meditative and healing practice. Gathering as many have done for centuries\, Denise will share tips and ideas for using needle and thread to bring joy and creativity to our everyday lives. Use her ideas to jump start your own\, or bring your favorite hand work projects and join us for community stitching time!\n \nThis community stitching circle is for you! For example\, maybe you’ve been hand sewing for years; you might be interested in exploring the recent revival of the “slow-stitch” movement; maybe you are are a needle pointer with a project to finish. Or\, you might simply enjoy the meditative nature of hand making with needle and thread.\n \nYou may consider bringing:\n\n 	needles and thread\,\n 	an old pair of jeans or other clothing that was headed to charity\,\n 	left over fabric from another project\,\n 	or simply bring yourself for some (virtual) time in community.\n\n\n\n\n\nStitched Together will be offered Monthly on Saturdays 10:00 – 11:30am ET. \n\nUpcoming Dates: \n\n 	June `10\n\nSuggested Donation: $10\n\n\n\nAbout Denise Feldman\nDenise Feldman is a local mixed media artist who discovered the power of creativity as a healing practice after her treatment for breast cancer in 2014. As a creative ‘dabbler’ who loves working with various materials and surfaces\, Denise shares her mixed media processes and soulful perspective with the hope of inspiring others to tell their stories ‘on and off the page’ and clear space for life’s chapters yet to come.\n\n“My philosophy is simply that telling our stories helps us heal by giving us the space to process our own experiences and connect with each other. Getting our stories out from our hearts and our heads helps make room for the next chapter to happen…the one just waiting there in the wings.” ~Denise

SUMMARY:Stitched Together
DESCRIPTION:This program is being offered virtually through Zoom. In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Denise Feldman\n\nStitched Together\nWe’re all part of the same cloth… \n\nJoin us for a Stitching Circle! Denise Feldman\, a local mixed-media artist and cancer thriver\, hosts this monthly gathering in (virtual) community as we talk and stitch—a powerful meditative and healing practice. Gathering as many have done for centuries\, Denise will share tips and ideas for using needle and thread to bring joy and creativity to our everyday lives. Use her ideas to jump start your own\, or bring your favorite hand work projects and join us for community stitching time!\n \nThis community stitching circle is for you! For example\, maybe you’ve been hand sewing for years; you might be interested in exploring the recent revival of the “slow-stitch” movement; maybe you are are a needle pointer with a project to finish. Or\, you might simply enjoy the meditative nature of hand making with needle and thread.\n \nYou may consider bringing:\n\n 	needles and thread\,\n 	an old pair of jeans or other clothing that was headed to charity\,\n 	left over fabric from another project\,\n 	or simply bring yourself for some (virtual) time in community.\n\n\n\n\n\nStitched Together will be offered Monthly on Saturdays 10:00 – 11:30am ET. \n\nUpcoming Dates: \n\n 	July 8\n\nSuggested Donation: $10\n\n\n\nAbout Denise Feldman\nDenise Feldman is a local mixed media artist who discovered the power of creativity as a healing practice after her treatment for breast cancer in 2014. As a creative ‘dabbler’ who loves working with various materials and surfaces\, Denise shares her mixed media processes and soulful perspective with the hope of inspiring others to tell their stories ‘on and off the page’ and clear space for life’s chapters yet to come.\n\n“My philosophy is simply that telling our stories helps us heal by giving us the space to process our own experiences and connect with each other. Getting our stories out from our hearts and our heads helps make room for the next chapter to happen…the one just waiting there in the wings.” ~Denise

SUMMARY:Radical Writing Space
DESCRIPTION:This program is being offered virtually through Zoom. In order to participate and receive the Zoom link\, register by clicking the RSVP button above or by emailing programs@smithcenter.org.\nYou will receive the Zoom information no later than the morning of your program.\nwith Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA and Kiersten Gallagher\n\nWherever you are on life’s journey\, there are times when it can feel impossible to commit to a recurring program like a workshop series. Radical Writing Space is our answer to this conundrum of wanting to attend for some radical self-care\, but struggling to commit.\n \nClinical studies have documented the healing psychological and psychical impacts of writing within a safe and sacred space. On the second Friday of each month\, drop in for one hour for Radical Writing Space and join us for inspiring writing prompts\, time to write\, and time to share with one another about your experience of putting your most radical emotions\, feelings\, and experiences on paper.\n \nThe part that makes this writing so “radical” is that we create a safe space for it all — raw feelings\, emotions\, experiences — and\, together\, we give voice to them in a supportive\, nonjudgmental environment.\n\n \nThis healing program offers a place for supporting one another and we stay clear of writing critique. Come and experience writing and sharing together.\n\n\n\nRadical Writing Space will be hosted Monthly on the 2nd Friday from 11am – 12:30pm ET. No previous writing experience necessary. Drop-ins welcome!\n\n\n\n\nAbout Mindy Brodsky\, LCSWA\n\nMindy Brodsky specializes in trauma-informed\, strengths-based counseling with a passion for integrative health and healing. Mindy honors her clients as the experts of their lives\, and she strives to provide a supportive and safe environment.\n\nAfter a career in social justice advocacy and her own challenging health journey\, Mindy aspires to meet her clients where they are to help them achieve their goals.\n\n\n\nAbout Kiersten Gallagher\n\n\nKiersten has served as the Cancer Support Program Director for Smith Center since 2014. Before coming to Smith Center\, she had the privilege to serve individuals and families living with cancer at Wellness House of Annapolis. Kiersten aims to offer programs to reduce stress and help participants to see the world we live in from different perspectives.
