· Part II: Working on Your Advance Care Plan.

We are taking names of people interested in attending future workshops and request that you call the Comox Valley Hospice Society at 250-339-5533 to register. You may also leave your name and contact information if you, a family member or friend has a special inquiry or request regarding Advance Care Planning. A member of the Comox Valley Advance Care Planning team will contact you.

PART I - 'INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCE CARE PLANNING'

The Part I Introduction to Advance Care Planning Workshop is held for participants who are interested in learning why an advance care plan is important and how to begin the conversation with your loved ones and your physician about your personal health care wishes. Participants will also hear about the current BC Legislation and resources that will assist participants in preparing their own advance care plan.

At the Part I 'Introduction to Advance Care Planning' Workshop interested participants will be notified of upcoming dates for the PART II - 'Working on Your Advance Care Plan' 2 hour workshop. Materials to assist in the writing of individual Advance Care Plans are available to workshop participants by donation.

heARTful Expressions - National Advance Care Planning Day April 16, 2014

"Creative outlets of expression allow complex and strong feelings to be rendered in tangible forms that have the power to express things that words alone cannot" (Center for Hospice Care, Southeast Connecticut)

Paintings by - L'Arche Comox Valley

National Advance Care Planning Day Wednesday April 16, 2014 saw the Comox Valley Advance Care Planning Committee celebrate heARTful Expressions at an evening public exhibition, open house and reception held at Berwick Retirement Community in Comox.

heARTful Expressions emerged from the committee's recognition of people’s individual creativity as a beneficial avenue for communication and one way to possibly start the conversation about advance care planning. As the Comox Valley is a unique region that is well known for its rich array of artistry and creativity including artists who work in many mediums, the committee established heARTful Expressions to encourage creative ways of ‘having the talk’ about advance care planning. Throughout 2013 community members with an interest in creativity and the arts were invited to take part in this project encouraging conversations about the issues, ideas, and concerns that may arise when people express their own personal wishes about advance care planning, life and death wishes and bereavement.

Nearly 200 individuals enjoyed viewing and listening to the unique sharings that formed our heARTful Expressions exhibit and open house. We gratefully acknowledge the participating artists and their unique gifts of inspiration as a variety of art mediums were celebrated including: theatre, written verse & creative writing, painting, photography, rock art, paverpol, glass jewelry and creations, stained glass, dance, songwriting, music and doll making.

Participants created original works of art that encouraged people to have the conversation about advance care planning at the open house and with their loved ones. Having one’s voice and personal wishes spoken from the heART was a common theme throughout the submitted pieces.

Our sincere thanks to our heARTful Expressions Artists!

"I created this series because every painting I saw was of a young beautiful woman, especially if she was in a bathing suit. Just because we grow old doesn't mean we are not beautiful anymore. It's not the years in your life, it's the life in your years." - Marla Thirsk

The Artist, Creativity and ‘Having the Conversation‘

How heARTful Expressions was inspired …

Adapted from 'Eternal Echoes' by John O'Donohue, Author of Anam Cara

The artist trains him or herself while animated by a unique longing.

There are no outer ready-made maps for what the artist wants to create as one’s heart pushes out to the edge in the creation of something original.

The artist is called not so much from the outside as from the unknown depths within, and the invitation to create comes from elsewhere.

Artists coax the invisible towards a form where it becomes faintly visible, or silence moves towards voice. Out of the flow something new begins to emerge.

The artist is fiercely called to truth.

Despite all of the personal limitation and uncertainty, the artist has to express what he or she finds.

The artist is always faithful to longing first. This willingness to follow the longing “wherever it leads” enables all kinds of new possibilities of creation.

The Artist is a permanent pilgrim finding their voice in their chosen medium.

Art leads to another way of ‘having the conversation’ about important life issues, beliefs, values and wishes. Art and creativity may be one’s chosen route to advance care planning and heARTful Expressions emerged from this creative source.
