HEALING THROUGH THE ARTS

The Franklin County Arts Alliance presents our new Healing Through the Arts program.  The arts have proven to be an effective way to facilitate healing, whether through painting, writing, music, cooking, or countless other art forms.  Our Fall Session begins Friday, August 31, 2012 from 10:00am to 12:00pm, at the Cultural Arts Center.  This free opportunity will continue each Friday in the month of September, and the final class will be October 5, 2012.

William Shakespeare once said, "Give sorrow words."  With that in mind, for the first two Fridays, we will be focusing, primarily, on a Creative Healing Journal.  Some supplies will be provided by the FCAA.  You can bring your own journal, or we can provide you with a Composition Book or 1-Subject Spiral.  The first class day you might also bring: shoe boxes, magazines, scraps of paper, lace, and ribbon, to be used throughout the six week session. 

If you have any questions or wish to let us know you will be joining us, give us a call at (903) 434-9130 or shoot an email to franklincountyarts@gmail.com.  And remember:  The Arts are good for the soul.
