At OARS and Magnolia House, we believe that recovery incorporates every aspect of a person's life, body, soul and spirit. Discovery is a significant part of the recovery process and is accomplished by searching inward to unlock the doors that keep one bound. Providing a creative outlet for the clients in our program is an important part of the discovery process.
As a result, Magnolia House Studios was born. Here, clients from all walks of life and different stages of recovery come together to create something beautiful. Old is made new and life restored in the Studio.
