FREE workshop to make holiday art as a family!
Pre-Valentine's Day Session
Thursday, February 7, 2019, 5:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
CaringMatters, 518 S. Frederick Ave., Gaithersburg, MD 20877
CaringMatters Family Nights are designed for families who have experienced the death of a loved one. Each workshop is held approximately one week prior to a major holiday, so that families can learn coping tools, plan for how they will handle celebrations, and mark the absence of their loved one(s). Activities facilitated by trained volunteers encourage parents and children to create something together to take home, as a way to continue conversations about their loved ones and to help keep their memories alive.
Each workshop is designed to be independent of the others, so that families can come to one or more as they choose.
The workshops help families:
• Express their grief and remember their loved one who died
• Honor their loved one while bringing their family closer together
• Learn coping strategies for handling holidays and special days
• Share dinner with other families who are also grieving
Appropriate for families with children ages 5-18. Space is limited. Registration is required.
To register or learn more, contact Amy Tran, amyt@caringmatters.org or 301-869-4673.
