Join us for Clay Creatures: Shape Your Stutter, a hands-on workshop where children who stutter get to transform their speech into art. Together, we’ll imagine what your stutter might look like if it were an animal—big or small, fierce or friendly—and bring it to life with clay. As you mold your creature, you’ll have the chance to share its story with the group, creating a fun, supportive space to explore self-expression, creativity, and connection.
