Megan has an interdisciplinary doctorate in Indigenous views of land and clown medicine as mental health supports and a diploma in relational somatic therapy. Since 2014 she has offered clownesque playshops and performances in varied community venues. She creates songs, storybooks for grownups, and gardens, and she is a sister, partner, daughter, cousin, and auntie. She is thrilled to be joined by her mom Pam for this playshop!
