Exhibition Opening: Saturday, September 12 from 6-8pm
Expressions of Resilience showcases the transformative power of creativity in personal recovery. This exhibition highlights artistic expression as a vital healing tool, helping individuals process emotions, share their journeys, and reconnect with themselves and their communities. Through painting, sculpture, photography and more, participants find strength, resilience, and hope. Expressions of Resilience celebrates how creativity fosters personal growth, reduces stigma, and unites communities.
One of Community in Connection’s (CiC) guiding principles is to empower individuals on their recovery journey by leveraging the strength of lived experience, embracing holistic and artistic modalities, and supporting multiple pathways of recovery. They are dedicated to fostering an inclusive, compassionate community where every person’s unique path is honored and celebrated.
CiC’s programs include mutual support meetings representing multiple pathways of recovery, holistic natural recovery programs, harm reduction training and supplies, recovery-friendly activities, education, and navigation to resources supporting home, health, purpose, and community. CiC offers a variety of workshops for its participants, including drawing and ceramics classes at The Center for Contemporary Art.
