THE ODYSSEY WORKSHOP

   An Exploration of Grief and Healing

   Through Creativity
Picture


​GRIEF AND HEALING: THE ODYSSEY WORKSHOP

The Odyssey workshop is for populations where the primary goal is healing from grief and loss. Specific groups may be struggling such as veterans, recovery groups or hospital populations or there may be a gathering of disparate people suffering from losses. Creativity is both a tool for expression and transformational in nature. As a transformational experience the arts are natural healers. Theater, writing and art will be used  to create community, address grief and help with the healing process after loss. 
This workshop requires the presence of an additional mental health professional.
​(This six hour workshop can be divided in various ways ​depending on scheduling needs) ​​

She has performed at two NYU Forums, WaxWorks in Brooklyn, NY, at the National Puppetry Fringe Festival 2013 and at THE NERVE performance art festival in 2016 and 2017. ​Jean’s new play, “Still Life of an Orange and Other Puppet Parables” appeared in the Hollywood Fringe Festival in California last Summer.   www.jeanminuchin.com
