Join FORGE and friends for a low-key support group to chill, connect with others, chat, and color. Folks will have the opportunity to just BE with each other. What to bring? A cup of hot chocolate or another favorite wintery beverage. A coloring page or book (especially those with a winter theme – snowflakes, holiday symbols, winter sports, festive sparkles, whatever winter means to you) Pens, pencils, markers to color with YOURSELF – however you are feeling, whatever state you are in! As we color, we talk about whatever moves us – and share the results of our beautiful coloring at the end of the session.
