In honor of Veterans Day, The Museum of Flight, in Seattle, WA, will host a free First Aid Arts Intro Workshop on November 9, designed for leaders in Northwest veteran communities who work with veterans in the field of mental health. The workshop introduces participants to the science behind toxic stress and explores a range of simple, arts-based techniques aimed at supporting emotional regulation and resilience. Attendees will also receive a First Aid Arts Mini-Toolkit to use in their own work and communities. The event is open to all interested community members, though registration is required to reserve a spot. This initiative is made possible through a generous grant from the Wells Fargo Foundation. Founded in 2010, First Aid Arts equips individuals and organizations with arts-based tools to support trauma recovery for survivors of natural disasters, human trafficking, forced migration, domestic violence, homelessness, and other crises.
