Dr. Fyre Jean Graveline’s latest bold, colourful and eye-catching creative offering is here!
We successfully self-published a glimpse into our larger forthcoming Offering, as a Chapbook of 50 pages: Well.come to LIFE as Medicine: All Healing Heals All.
Dr. Graveline weaves original poetry, art, and Healing Arts experientials throughout this Offering’s intentional and accessible multi-sensorial design and layout to enVision and enAct Collaborative Relational Healing Arts with Indigenous Peoples, our Families and Communities, and our Allies. This Chapbook invites All into a Shared Healing Circle: First Nations, Métis, Inuit Creative and Expressive Arts Therapists, Social Workers, Artists, Activists and Community Workers from across Turtle Island and our Shared World.
On September 2025, We invited Community to Support us with our self-publishing process. We are so GrateFull to All who shared and donated through our Kickstarter campaign and directly through our website.
With your generous support:
- We exceeded our pledged goal of $7,777 and crowdfunded 20% of our total projected cost
- We printed an initial run (30 copies) and an updated second edition (100 copies) of our Chapbook with product feedback already integrated through Print X, an Indigenous owned and operated print company that offers eco-friendly materials inside and out.
- We mobilized community support across our respective networks with more than 100+ backers and several more already interested in purchasing our upcoming offerings, in addition to our self-published Chapbook
- Assembled a Team of dedicated and talented Collaborators to support Dr. Graveline throughout, which includes attaining all foundational tools and resources for our self-publishing Journey.
- Completed a professionally reviewed draft of the Chapbook, peer-reviewed and copy-edited by a variety of stakeholders in relevant fields, with suggestions implemented
Throughout our self-publishing journey so far, it has been a joy connecting with Community. For Kickstarter contributors, We also thank All for continued patience as We prepare to send all reward bundles. Please look out for forthcoming outreach activities, such as community-based initiatives, local, regional, national or international exhibitions, land-based events involving artistic practices, presentations, festivals, and networking events. Now that we have produced our Opening Chapbook, We are confident We can overcome anything that comes our way! We have proven to ourselves, and all of you, that We have what it takes to bring Dr. Graveline’s larger Offering, LIFE as Medicine: All Healing Heals All, to our Shared World as self-publishers.
