Art

Lynda: I’ve been taking the workshop since 2004. It’s a great way to meet people. I look inside myself as I draw and I find I’m better able to express myself.

Lise: I’ve been learning about myself since 2004. I’ve become more tolerant towards people. I’ve learned to see the beauty in people and things around me. I’m becoming proud of what I do, of being able to keep on with a project right to the end. I’ve realized I am a creative person.

Marie-Claire: I’ve been learning about the different media and techniques for a year now. I’m building up confidence in what I do and discovering my inner self. I’m finding it easier to face conflicts. I recognize more who I am and what I want.

Joanne: It’s hard experiencing social exclusion day-to-day, whether for financial or medical reasons. You can’t follow the frenetic pace of life today without thinking you’re weak, lazy or unwilling – but it’s just that you live at a different pace. These workshops help me accept who I am, that I am different and that art can heal.
