LGBTIQA+ Creative Grief Writing Workshop

Join us for a unique and intimate online workshop designed specifically for LGBTIQA+ individuals who have experienced the loss of a loved one to suicide. Led by playwright and facilitator Ayşe B., this sensory-focused creative writing session offers a gentle space to explore and express your grief journey.

During this two-hour session, you'll be guided through a series of thoughtful prompts that engage your senses:

• Create a recipe of your grief
• Explore the sounds your loved one left behind
• Discover the textures associated with their presence
• Connect with memories through sensory exploration

This workshop provides a safe, supportive environment where you can let your mind rest and allow your senses to guide your writing, uncovering stories that live beneath the surface of your experience.

The session includes:

• Guided sensory writing exercises
• Optional sharing and reflection
• Connection with others in the LGBTIQA+ community
• Support from experienced facilitators
