I Made It – Ceramic Painting Workshop

There are some things that are hard to put into words. This workshop offers another way to express them.

I Made It is a gentle, creative space for survivors and those who stand beside them to come together and create something meaningful.

Using glass paints on ceramic plates, you’ll be invited to design a piece that represents your journey - whatever that looks like for you. There is no right or wrong way to take part. Whether your piece reflects strength, survival, memory, or simply a moment of calm, it is yours to create and to keep.

This is not about artistic skill.
It’s about having space.

A space to pause.
A space to create.
A space to take something with you - a quiet reminder that you made it.

What to expect

• A calm, welcoming environment
• All materials provided (ceramic plate & glass paints)
• Gentle guidance if you’d like it
• Tea/coffee and light refreshments
• A piece to bring home and keep

Who this is for

This workshop is open to:

• Survivors of trauma
• Those supporting or standing beside someone they love

You are welcome to attend alone or with someone you trust.

Important information

This is a creative workshop, not a therapy session. However, it is held with care and understanding of trauma. You are free to engage as much or as little as feels right for you.
