Join us for an enriching creative art and self-care experience designed for foster, kinship, and permanent carers.

We invite you to:

  • Express your unconscious thoughts, worries, and grief.
  • Take a moment to pause and care for yourself
  • Honour the incredible contributions you make to the lives of children, young people, and families.

What to Expect

These sessions will be facilitated by Tessa and Deb from FCAV and include engaging visual art activities-no art skills or experience required!

Learn how creative art benefits you and can positively impact the children and young people in your care and have an opportunity to connect with other carers. Take this time for you and discover the power of creativity and connection.

Morning tea and lunch will be provided.
