“I totally enjoy coming to Jackie’s workshops on exploring grief through art. After we introduce ourselves, Jackie reads poems about grief and survival. Then she joins us to create art using materials she has provided. I love the warmth of the group and being part of the conversation. Also, I’ve made some of my best art at these sessions.”

“Jackie integrates creative arts practices on a monthly basis at my shop which draws a different crowd into the space and creates buzz around new ways of processing grief in a creative setting. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Jackie and helping her make her creative visions come to life by offering host space for these classes.”
