Wellness in the Creative Engagement Wing
College is exciting, nerve-wrecking, and often overwhelming. Many students experience anxiety, stress, depression, or grief while in school; don't navigate college alone! Join us for Wellness in the Creative Engagement Wing, a program designed to help you destress while crafting.
In September, we'll be embroidering photos! Bring a special photo - a photo of a loved one, a pet, a happy memory, your home, anything! - that you would like to embroider, learn to stitch, and surround yourself with a supportive environment!
Whether you are looking for a listening ear or need a quiet, calm place to retreat to, join the UGA Libraries and the UGA Health Center to craft, connect, and destress!
