Expressive Arts Studio

Join us for an ongoing three-hour studio class designed by Chau Huynh, MFA, for the purpose of utilizing art as a tool to express one’s inner voice and communicate to the outside world.

This is an excellent opportunity to express yourself in a different voice, learn new skills, have some fun, and make meaning of your experiences
