Event description

Art is a beautiful tool that can be used to bring awareness to things that we are carrying throughout our daily lives. It can be a powerful way to express ourselves and begin to understand parts of ourself and our story.

In our program, Creative Journey, we create space and guidance for you to express yourself, and your personal journey during the natural disaster event of February/March 2022.

What do I need to bring?

Just you! We want this to be as easy and accessible as possible. All art utensils will be provided for you to choose from and express yourself as you embark on this journey.

This 3 session program is not simply for people who have a talent for art but for anyone who feels a desire to reconnect and find a way to process and find peace in their own story.

Throughout this program you will have the opportunity to:

Process your difficult experience during and since the floods in 2022
Connect with others, yourself & the creative experience
Create a personal piece to represent your stage in the journey

Tickets for good, not greed Humanitix dedicates 100% of profits from booking fees to charity

Healing and Resilience Australia Inc. (HARA) walks with individuals and communities through the aftermath of disaster.

HARA was founded in response to the Northern NSW floods in 2022, our aim is to support those who had lost so much.

Our team live in Northern NSW and have lived through the experience of the floods, and previously bushfires. We realised the magnitude of these disasters early on and have been engaging with the community to develop services to support people in their recovery. As mental health workers we are, naturally, concerned for the wellbeing of those affected.

After the initial priorities of food, water and accommodation, mental health is so often forgotten in a disaster aftermath. However, without a healthy mind, we as humans discover quickly that life can become extremely difficult.

Feeling safe, discovering meaning and finding peace again, is a vital part of recovery.

As a team, we have years of collective experience walking alongside those who have been traumatised or negatively affected by life's events.

When we connected after the floods, forming HARA seemed the natural next step. We knew that together we can do more - be more effective and empower more people - as we take the step to meet people where they are.
