So far, two days of making with three families have taken place. These events are designed to give families the ability to express how the crisis affected has them and the life of the person they lost. Students and volunteers worked with those families to facilitate art creation in hopes of applying therapeutic properties as an emotional outlet. The artwork produced during these events will be displayed in other aspects of the What Heroin Sounds Like project.
Our students and volunteers also got hands on experience with aiding in Art therapy and seeing the aftermath of the heroin epidemic up close by hearing these stories.
