Children’s Virtual Bereavement Art Group starts in October

The UC Davis Child Life and Creative Arts Therapy Department will host "Remembering Together: Virtual Bereavement Art Group," focusing on grief and processing loss through self-expression and art for children and teens next month.

The group dates and time will be based on age:

• Ages 6-11: Oct. 25, Nov. 1 and 8 from 4-5:30 p.m.
• Ages 12-16: Oct. 27, Nov. 3 and 10 from 4-5:30 p.m.

Each workshop will be facilitated by a certified child life specialist and a registered art therapist, trained in bereavement and child development.

The three-session workshop will teach them tools to express and process difficult emotions related to loss.

To register, please fill out the family questionnaire by Friday, Oct. 14, 2022. If you have questions, please email [email protected].

After registration, participants will receive art materials and necessary information to participate in the virtual group.

The group is funded by New York Life and is provided free of charge to the public.
