Hope: Expressing Grief Through Art” exhibit which will feature art and poetry created by individuals and 
families in the Drew’s Hope grief and loss support program, a local Bereaved Parent Support Group and 
Bereaved Spouse Support Group, the Sweet Grace Ministries stillborn and infant loss support group and 
other local grievers. Memory boxes, sand art, painted canvases, scrapbook pages, poems and butterfly 
collages will be featured. A Rainbow Bridge piece will represent pet loss. For Children’s Grief Awareness 
Day, on Thursday, November 21st, 4-7 p.m., Shippensburg Arts Programming and Education (SHAPE) will 
host a Holiday Remembrance Ornament Making workshop. Hosted by Marcie Taylor, of the Drew 
Michael Taylor Foundation, activity can be very healing for individuals or families that are facing the 
holiday season without the physical presence of a loved one (including beloved pets). Participants will 
create a holiday ornament in memory of a loved one to serve as a symbolic reminder that they are still 
with you in spirit. This is a free workshop; ornaments and materials will be supplied. To register, please call 
SHAPE at 532-2559.  
Location: 20 West King St.,  Shippensburg • 532-2559www.shapeart.org
