This teen with autism hadn't spoken until she saw these Christmas lights, her mom says. "I was just trying to catch my breath because it was the first time that I had heard my daughter's voice. I do think that the lights & the music brought it out of her." cnn.it/2szq2ST

Thrilled to announce that our first LGBTQ Young Adult Creative Writing Workshop is this Thursday, 12/19 from 6-7:30 PM at the Studio City Library! This group will look at examples of writing by LGBTQ authors and create our own writings with the themes explored in mind and share!
Tonight's the night! "Creative Expressions," our monthly free teen group, will meet for the first time in Sherman Oaks at 6 pm. Let's share artistic expressions and ultimately create a performance piece together! Led by a former professional actor who is now a therapist. Join us!
