SUMMARY:Home Horizon Youth Outreach
DESCRIPTION:Our Your S.A.F.E. outreach program works with additional vulnerable youth to identify safe living spaces and provides direction to assist them in regaining control of their lives. Our S.A.F.E. outreach programs serve youth aged 16-29. Since the launch of this program in July 2020\,we have served 127 youth\, with over 1085 service interactions (referrals\, goalsetting\, supplies\, workshops\, etc.)\, many in the Wasaga Beach area. \nThrough our outreach services\, we supply important items such as tents\, sleeping bags\, food\, hygiene products\, grocery gift cards\, masks & sanitizers\, jackets\, hand warmers\, clothes\, and much more. \nThe program also provides support and advocacy for mental health\, physical health (new family doctor)\, legal matters\, financial aid\, rental/tenant advocacy as well as referrals to other housing agencies. \nThe program has been an incredible success to date. It helps one of our most vulnerable populations to avoid falling through the cracks\, providing every individual who come in contact with our outreach worker the chance to feel safe and heard. We work with all marginalized youth regardless of their race\, gender\, sexual orientation\, family situations and socio-economic background. \nOur programs are designed to assist youth struggling with social inequalities with tools that will help them to cope and grow stronger to manage and address any bias they face in life.

SUMMARY:Adult Hand-built Pottery Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a hands-on experience at our handbuilt pottery workshop over two sessions\, Nov 26th and Dec 3rd\, 2024.\n\n\nThis is an adult workshop. Must commit to both sessions. Class runs on both November 26th and December 3rd\, 2024\, from 11 AM to 1 PM. \nJoin us as we dive into the world of hand-built pottery\, where you will connect with fellow enthusiasts and unleash your creativity. This two-part workshop promises to be a fun and fulfilling experience that will leave you with a beautiful\, handcrafted piece to cherish! \nIn the first workshop\, you’ll learn the art of crafting a unique pottery piece using your hands. Various techniques and styles will be explored along the way. Stephen’s approachable teaching style makes it easy for everyone\, from beginners to more experienced potters\, to find their voice in clay. Upon completion of the first workshop\, Stephen will take the newly created pieces back to his studio for the first firing in his kiln. \nThe second workshop will be all about the glazing! This glass like coating enhances the appearance of your piece as well as adding durability. During this workshop\, Stephen will demonstrate how to prepare your piece to receive the glaze\, explain the different types of glazing and walk you through the various application techniques. As the final step\, Stephen will transport all the finished pottery back to his studio for the final firing in his kiln. \nYour pieces will be available for pick up at the library at a later date to be discussed during the final workshop. \nPlease Note: \nThis workshop consists of two sessions and requires participants to attend BOTH workshops in order to complete the handbuilt pottery process. Please ensure you are available to attend both dates before reserving your spot. Library membership is required. \nFree to participate. Supplies provided. \nSpace is limited to 15 registrants.
