Art is Healing

At Chaplaincy Cork’s Place, we know that there are times when grief has no words, especially for children and teens who may not know how to express the sadness and loss they are feeling. Cork’s Place, the only grief support facility in the Tri-City community specifically designed for children and teens, ages 3-17, offers a safe space to explore feelings of grief and loss in a variety of ways – and paint is a popular medium for many of them.

The annual HeART of Healing benefit for Cork’s Place features original artwork created by local children and teens, who have chosen to express or demonstrate what grief, loss and healing means to them. By participating in the event, you will witness not only the pain but also the healing journey of grief through the eyes of a child. Unique and one-of-a-kind art pieces created by Cork’s Place kids will be available for purchase.
