"Wellness is not a destination; it's a way of life." We at The Growing Space focus on Creative Wellness. Our mission is to support our community through the use of creative and educational activities that promote mental and emotional well-being.

So what does a Creative Wellness-focused lifestyle look like? It integrates artistic expression and imagination into your daily self-care. It prioritizes the process of making things over productivity, using activities like writing, doodling, moving, or listening to music to process emotions, relieve stress, and boost mental clarity.

This June, we have a few offerings to boost your Creative Wellness, encourage community connections, and bring fun to your life. Sound Journeys, Bilingual Game Night, and Spanish Classes are the starting point of our summer programming -- stay tuned for more opportunities!
