Forget-Me-Not Good Grief Workshops

Forget-Me-Not Good Grief Workshops [FREE]
Workshops: Saturdays 1 March, 8 March, 15 March 11am -1pm, All ages

Workshops led by artist Debra Goldsmith
Join caring artists and counsellors at this 'Good Grief' workshop. You will be supported to make a flower from up-cycled materials in celebration of a loved one or something, you have lost. The flowers will form an installation in Victory/Djaara Park during the 2025 Castlemaine Fringe Festival.

Unleash your creativity and increase your wellbeing in a caring environment, supported and guided by others who care. Make your own floral tribute in the Forget-Me-Not workshop in the run up to the festival and plant it in the earth to form part of a large installation of Forget-me-nots! The workshops are for all the community to open up conversations about life and loss, to share stories and shape memories in creative form. Good Grief Gigs are all ages events for anyone who has loved and lost.

Participants are encouraged to register so we have ideas of numbers, but you are also welcome to just come on the day
