Safe Harbor of Sheboygan County

06/26/2026

We have some exciting news! To kickstart our new programming, Safe Harbor is inviting the community to a series of A Window Between Worlds (AWBW) art workshops. For three weeks in July, trauma-informed art workshops are held in spaces beyond our walls. The theme of these workshops focuses on creating safe spaces within our community. All workshops are family friendly. Registration is encouraged (copy and paste link): https://forms.gle/RZ3UQp7zEnxtwZNy7

Workshop Descriptions

Week 1: At the Core Community Mural Project
This workshop gives participants a chance to deeply and mindfully connect to and explore their core wounds, patterns, needs, values, and identities, and connect with others by working together to create a mural that tells their stories and aims to raise public awareness and inspire transformation in their community.

July 6, 2026: Mead Library Imaginarium Makerspace, 710 N 8th St (2nd floor) 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
July 10, 2026: Mead Library Imaginarium Makerspace, 710 N 8th St (2nd floor) 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm

Week 2: Helping Hands, Healing Hands Community Mandala Project
This workshop gives participants an opportunity to explore what a "healthy and safe" community looks like through the creation of a hand collage that symbolizes their vision for that community. The individual collage hands will then become part of a larger mandala, which aims to convey that collectively, our hands can help and heal.

July 14, 2026: Safe Harbor Community Building, 929 Niagara Ave 5:30 pm - 7 pm
July 17, 2026: WordHaven BookHouse, 923 N 8th St 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Week 3: Community Story Tree
Using the tree as a symbol of life, participants will have the opportunity to express their stories and share their hopes and visions for a violence-free future. Through images of roots, bark, branches, leaves, fruits, and sky, participants will join together to create a special tree embodying their community commitment against domestic violence.

July 28, 2026: Safe Harbor Community Building, 929 Niagara Ave 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
July 30, 2026: Ellwood H. May Environmental Park (Maywood), 3615 Mueller Rd 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

June is Elder Abuse Awareness Month, and we're inviting our community to join us for two fun and educational events focused on connection, awareness, and prevention.

💜 June 19 | 5:00–7:00 PM

🎉 Enjoy an evening of BINGO, prizes, and conversation while learning about elder abuse and how we can support older adults in our community.

🏓 Learn pickleball, play lawn games, connect with others, and discover ways to recognize and prevent elder abuse.
