The Open Notebook is a warm and welcoming space to explore creative expression in community. Inspired by Suleika Jaouad’s The Book of Alchemy—a collection of thoughtful, accessible prompts inviting reflection, imagination, and meaning-making—this circle offers gentle invitations into writing and other creative forms of response. Together, we will engage selected prompts and share (as we feel comfortable) in a spirit of listening and connection. No prior experience—and no familiarity with the book is needed. Just bring your curiosity and an open page.

Each session is a stand alone class, space is limited so please check your calendar before registering.  You are welcome to sign up for multiple sessions.

Open to clients, caregivers, and bereaved members.  Free program with optional donations accepted at registration.  This program will meet in person at the Healing Garden.
