For many young people in Uplift’s grief services, a picture truly says a thousand words. Since our founding in 2000, Uplift’s clinicians have invited youth and caregivers to engage in creative expression of their grief through art and storytelling. These art-making activities help attendees explore their grief, reflect on the legacies of the people they grieve, and find community together. 

With the permission of participating families, Uplifting Voices: Art That Speaks will proudly display art created by young people and caregivers during Uplift’s Family Art Night series and grief groups. Uplifting Voices will also include a community grief art activity, light refreshments, and opportunities to connect with the Uplift community. Join us this Children’s Grief Awareness Month as we celebrate how art uplifts voices.
