🖌️✨ Brush With Grief at Medicine Horse
Grief lives in the body — sometimes, making something with your hands helps you carry it differently.

Join us at the beautiful grounds of Medicine Horse in Longmont for a creative grief workshop where we’ll craft personal brushes using elk, moose, raccoon fur, plant fibers, and wood. You’re invited to bring personal mementos like feathers, pet fur, or hair from a loved one to include in your brush.

🐴 About the space:
Medicine Horse is a nonprofit offering equine-assisted therapy in a peaceful, healing setting. Their mission is to foster connection—with horses, nature, and community—to support resilience and recovery.

🌿 Upcoming Dates:
📅 Sunday, October 5 | 1–3 PM

🎟️ Free to attend
🧶 All materials provided
