“S.H.E. is Healing” 2024, a community art project resulting in 13 spirit portraits, is for all nations working to heal, themselves, families & communities. This project, which seeks to cultivate compassion, is inspired by the earth’s ability to heal. Like many women who turned to earthly wisdom during the pandemic, Suellen sought not only a connection with other women but also with her Celtic ancestors.
Encouraging women to tell their story Suellen caught the subject’s enthusiasm to share their spiritual side. This process resulted in her creating visual representations of spirit.
This work was greatly influence by many grandmothers: Powerful Sacred Woman. Grandmothers from various cultures who all pray for a kinder, gentler world for their grandchildren. These wise women know the future is only possible with a living earth. S.H.E. is healing, gives homage to all human’s connection to the earth. Also, nature’s ability to heal itself and all of us.

Drum Circle with Kelly Laurila Sunday Oct 6 3pm
FREE Event – All are Welcome

Kelly Laurila, an Indigenous Sami woman, song carrier, helper and educator, invites you to join her in song. With a little bit of teaching and a little bit of learning about Indigenous songs, everyone will have opportunity to be in circle to sing and drum.
The Indigenous words, ‘All my relations,’ are significant to Kelly and guide her life and work with Truth & Reconciliation and balanced relationships with all beings (e.g., humans, animals, birds, trees, plants, insects, water, land etc.). Many of the Indigenous songs speak to how to live one’s life with an ‘all our relations’ understanding. Come learn how!”
