### **Workshop with artist Prema Bangera**

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, join artist Prema Bangera for an inspiring workshop that weaves together guided art-making, reflective writing, and decolonized yogic practices to support healing, self-compassion, and authentic self-expression. Participants will sketch, paint and write as they explore how to challenge internal criticism and societal expectations to rewrite their personal narratives with strength and intention.

No art experience needed. This workshop centers Queer, trans, disabled, and Black, Latino, Asian American, and Indigenous individuals, and offers a supportive space for all. Ages 14+.
