Messy Hands Workshops
Teaching empathy through stick figures
FREE virtual workshop for
student support professionals
Wednesday, March 1
8pm Eastern
a misunderstood tool for quick visual communication, is revisited in this workshop on teaching empathy with children and adolescents in school settings.
Join me as we discuss ways to use simple drawings to create a rich environment for exploration of empathy and the ways our actions affect others around us.
This FREE one hour workshop will include information about using art as a technique to enhance challenging verbal discussions and to promote insight. We will draw terrible stick figures together as we experiment with showing and understanding how deep emotions can be conveyed in the least complicated ways.
No art background is required. Please bring a pencil, paper, and willingness to look a little silly.
This workshop is designed for student support professionals such as guidance counselors and school social workers who work with students of any age.
