I’m excited to share that I’ve been selected by United We Om for a 2025 Karma Project grant! I’ll be leading four workshops throughout the Hudson Valley this summer and fall, where folks can use stamps, markers, and zine templates to make their own coping skills maps.

Dana will lead 4 workshops for members of the LGBTQ+ community, utilizing art as a form of introspection and self exploration.

Each two-hour workshop will provide space for queer and gender non-conforming individuals to explore their emotions through artistic expression, while in safe community. Participants will use custom zine templates to create their own Coping Guides, and will leave with a deeper understanding of their emotions, coping skills and how to use the maps they’ve created.

United We Om feels blessed to be able to support Dana and the LGBTQ+ community when emotional coping skills matter more than ever.
