Lecture Series 2014





Register ON-LINE now.

Each year, Eden Health Care Services hosts an event where particular interests in the mental health field are presented to the community.  The purpose of the event is to spend a day with presenters who have a specialty in a particular area of interest.  The Lecture Series as it has become known is a daylong workshop intended to engage mental health professionals, health care providers, social workers, those who provide pastoral care and the general public who have an interest in the material being presented.


This year the Eden Lecture Series is entitled “Creativity and the Human Spirit, Weaving a Fabric of Healing and Hope”.  The day is going to be packed with presenters and with information gleaned from lived experience and with practical application.

Nigel & Lucile Bart of Artbeat Studios in Winnipeg   Link to Artbeat Studio

Shirley Elias of Emotesart Studio in Winnipeg           Link to emotesart

Margruite Krahn of The Art Loft in Neubergthal          Link to The Art Loft

In addition to these primary presenters, the day will be interspersed with guest appearance by Ted Schwartz of Ted & Co. TheatreWorks from Harrisonburg, Virginia.  Link to Ted & Co.
 

Each of these people have personal stories to tell and have found creative ways that have led to healing and hope in their own lives and in addition, made dramatic impacts on the lives around them.  The Eden Health Care Services Lecture Series is scheduled for Thursday November 7th at the Access Event Centre, 111 Gilmore Street  Morden, MB.  Sign-in begins at 8 a.m. and the lectures will begin promptly at 9 a.m.  The registration fee of $80 will include lunch and refreshment breaks.
