Mapping Q with UAMA

Free

with Elvis G-S

Calendar Dec 11, 2026 at 4:30 pm

Ages: 12 - 19

For ages 12 to 24!

Mapping Q is a free art-based program designed for LGBTQIA2S+ youth ages 14-24. In these sessions, we focus on fun, beginner-friendly prompts that we hope will inspire a greater sense of well-being, affirm identity, and increase community. Snacks are provided, and all skill levels are welcome. Mapping Q is made possible thanks to support from the LGBTQ+ Alliance Fund held at the Community Foundation of Southern Arizona.

Workshop! Paint Your HeArt Open! (December)

Free

with Desiree Maultsby

Calendar Dec 12, 2026 at 9 am

A monthly process painting session, open to all — no experience, no agenda, no product to produce. Each session is a 3-hour held space where participants paint freely, guided by the principle that the creative process matters more than the outcome. Participants leave feeling more connected to themselves, their body, and a community of people who showed up for the same thing.

Materials provided by The Drawing Studio.
