Stand-up Comedy Workshop
For some of us, humor gets us through the hard stuff of living with cancer, allowing us to process our experience in a way that helps us not only cope, but feel better. Laughing also releases serotonin, which can help your body heal. This workshop is not group therapy, but if you’d like to share and laugh about your experiences, join us in this 7-week workshop.
