Lauren
Ideas: Young Artists Short Film Project and Neurodivergent Artist Project
- Both sound like a good idea though Barbara asked if she is sure she has availability to work on two. She enthusiastically said yes of course.
- There can be liability issues and ACW can’t always pay participants so it’s good to think about finding funding options instead.

Idea: Paint to Process – Virtual meetings using Discord. Paint and talk about childhood trauma.
- ACW should be able to find this
- Lucie offered her studio at Solar Arts for a physical location
- Alkemy and Collin can work on starting a Discord for ACW where this project can be hosted from
