At SWAG, we are thrilled to announce our first community leader collaboration of the year with the talented Cleveland artist and Kent State graduate, Lacy Talley. Lacy will be leading our students in a Positive Affirmation painting workshop, helping them express their self-discovery and aspirations through art.
This year's SWAG mission is centered around the theme: “Purpose is Within Me.” Our students have been engaging in deep reflection, journaling, and discussions to explore their identities, dreams, and the goals they want to achieve. What better way to build on this journey than by starting with a strong foundation of "I AM"?
In Lacy’s workshop, students will create paintings inspired by personal affirmations like "I Am Great," "I Am an Artist," and "I Am a Star." These affirmations serve as reminders that recognizing who we are is the first step toward realizing who we can become. It's a beautiful way for our students to visualize their inner strengths and ambitions, using art as a tool to solidify their purpose.
We are incredibly grateful to Lacy Talley for her support of our organization and for sharing her artistic expertise with our students. Her positive influence and passion for community empowerment align perfectly with SWAG’s mission, and we are excited for this inspiring collaboration.
Stay tuned for more updates as our students continue their journey of self-expression and growth. Thank you, Lacy, for helping us kick off this meaningful experience!
