About Artful Balance

Artful Balance began with a simple but deeply felt question: what would it look like to create spaces for mental and emotional wellbeing that feel human, creative, and accessible, rather than clinical or overwhelming?

Born out of community-based care and lived experience, Artful Balance was shaped by the understanding that many people need support that meets them gently. We saw a need for spaces where art and movement could be used not as tools for performance or productivity, but as invitations to slow down, notice, and reconnect.

From small, intimate gatherings to broader community offerings, Artful Balance has grown through relationships. Each program is informed by listening to the needs, capacities, and voices of the people we serve. Our work continues to evolve in response to community feedback, collaboration, and care.

Artful Balance is guided by its Executive Director, Morgan Singleton, an artist and graduate social work student whose work sits at the intersection of creativity, care, and community connection. Morgan’s approach is shaped by lived experience, community-based practice, and a belief that wellbeing is most sustainable when it is accessible and relational. Drawing from both academic training and creative practice, she centers gentleness, equity, and trust in the spaces Artful Balance creates. Her leadership emphasizes listening over prescribing, presence over performance, and the idea that healing often begins when people are given permission to move slowly and engage creatively on their own terms.
