Connecting Artists to the Community with Education, Therapy and Fun

This'll be interesting as its deja-vu all over again... Our area is in need of art therapy (and therapy in any sort, really) because this will trigger issues, latent and otherwise.

For those of us in which this is true, simply stated, go towards good and healthy. Activities and people that increase positive feelings of wellbeing and helps one deal with and transform the anger, worry and anxiety is so needed. Mental vacations occasionally is OK. Deal with things a little at a time and then take a breath of fresh air. Repeat as needed.

Some mental vacations are damaging, of course; I'm worried that some will go toward substances, but the negative consequences that addiction brings will tow its own need for interventions.

On a personal level, the halt of the daily grind, the intensity and excitement is one thing- ya'll know I'm an adrenaline junkie, but I'm tired of cleaning up messes... literally and symbolically.
