Later this month community advocates from Charlotte Thrives and art therapists from Thrive by Design will partner to present an interactive wellness event.

“The Power of Creativity” explores the connection between creativity and your mental health, using art therapy techniques. Join us as we explore these pathways to support mental health and well-being.

Together, with journalists from the Observer, we’ll host a panel conversation, art activities and a resource fair highlighting organizations that are making a difference in Charlotte.
