We will be participating in International Overdose Awareness Day, this day commemorates all the friends, family and loved ones we have lost due to the drug poisoning crisis.

The gathering will take place 1-4pm on Sunday August 31 at Barbara Hall park. Come out to join the grief circle, sacred fire, art and music, and some education on overdose response! ❤️

🚨📸📸That’s a wrap on our photo group! 🚨📸📸

Clients got to learn different styles of photography and got to put their new knowledge into practice! They even got a chance to have their own photo gallery, some pieces going for over $1000 each. We think that’s a fair price for not only their hard work, but their passion, drive and creativity!

We are so proud of this group and can’t wait to see where their new photography skills bring them 🫶🏾
