Events Description
Join us for a fun and supportive day designed to boost social wellness and connection! Teens can explore engaging workshops, including cookie decorating, drumming, and terrarium-making — meet other teens, and even take a relaxing break with therapy dogs.
Parents/Caregivers are invited to a dedicated workshop about mental health delivered by Stella’s Place, which will cover fundamental ideas about mental health challenges.
Check out helpful community resources, enjoy refreshments, receive a goody bag, and take part in activities that encourage creativity, connection, and self-expression.
This is a free event — register via Eventbrite to secure your spot!
Walk-ins are welcome if there’s space available.
