"Illuminating the Invisible" Workshop w/ Gina Nelson | Chronic Pain Project

Chronic Pain Project Art Workshop for People and Caregivers Managing Chronic Pain

Gina Nelson of Nurture 3 Healing will lead a hands-on art workshop where participants can explore their experience of chronic pain through a guided, creative process. Held in conjunction with the Chronic Pain Project's exhibition "Illuminating the Invisible: The Beauty Behind the Pain," —(see Open House event here)—this workshop is open to people living with chronic pain and the caregivers who support them.

Gina is an artist and a healer whose practice centers ceremony, ritual, and the deep connection between body, heart, and mind. Her work creates space for healing by inviting people to give voice to exactly where they are — fostering realignment, clarity, compassion, and integration.

Led with care and respect, our time together will center comfort, choice, and community. By registering, you help grow a supportive network where people affected by chronic pain can pause, create, and feel less alone.
