Teddy Bear Workshop for Grief and Loss

The crafted bear symbolizes enduring love and serves as a comforting reminder. Creating a teddy bear from the clothing of a loved one gives a physical and sentimental object to hold and cherish, preserving their memory. The workshop fosters healing and strengthens bonds, please join us for this workshop.
