Thank you to NSUN newsletter for this.
“Arts & Ourselves is a series of creative sessions led by and for people with experience of self-harm. It is run by Make Space in collaboration with excellent creatives and facilitators. The programme offers room for our experiences in their multiple forms; a space for us to be together and to make some things. At no point will you be asked or encouraged to discuss or creatively represent your experience of self-harm, however you will be welcome to.
Our aim is to give room for self-harm all of its different meanings; you might want to explore shame, feel into joy, forget about self-harm entirely, or hear from others. Whatever you need, we hope you feel welcome. Each session will focus on a particular creative medium – the extent to which you make this about your experiences of self-harm is up to you.”
