Story Portrait Workshop

Register here: https://www.betterunite.com/2bcontinued-storyportrait

Express feelings, practice self-care, and connect with others who have also experienced trauma and loss as a result of having experienced one’s death by suicide.

Making a story portrait using photographic images can offer healing insight for participants as they create their own personal collage/story portrait about their trauma/grief journey as a suicide loss survivor and/or as a professional working with survivors of one’s death by suicide. Story Portrait participants are guided through the workshop with a series of questions as they develop their collage/story portrait.

Participants will also receive a copy of the Suicide Survivor Club’s (SSC) award-winning five-book set, written by SSC founder, Becky Anderson and her family, that showcases the healing power of visual narrative as an expression and tool that helped them cope and move through their lived trauma as survivors of their husband/father’s death by suicide. The book set is ideal as a healing tool for oneself, with a therapist, or in a support group.

The Story Portrait Workshop is a free event for suicide loss survivors and for professionals working with suicide loss survivors.

Helped funded by the Southwest Minnesota Arts Council.
