Sidewalk Chalk

By Holly Madden

Sidewalk chalk is an accessible way to create in a natural environment, and it is a medium that is often easy to use for all ages. This practices focused on color, nature, shape, and connection.

Trauma Training Takeaways: Art is a powerful form of expression, and in the outlet of expressing emotion or storytelling, healing can occur. Engaging in healing work, no matter the form, can bring up trauma and triggers. This requires sensitivity, compassion, and gentleness, whether it’s with yourself or with someone you are engaging with and caring for. Pursuing help and support from a licensed practitioner should always be encouraged and supported.
