This article tells the story of a university community engagement project that began in the late spring of 2020 when the world went into lockdown. Increased concern over women's welfare and well-being was brought into question in relation to those who are vulnerable with complex needs and had suffered societal-induced hardships. In conjunction with an innovative women's community project, this study considered the value of art-based online support as a platform from which to offer a non-judgemental and mindful space with a focus on identity and empowerment. The study is based on weekly art drop-in online workshops for vulnerable women and considers the value of hybrid ‘spaces’ as a pedagogical and practical model of communicative support and collective care. Findings from this community-engaged project highlight the responses and shifts within subjectivities through situated art experiences. As art educators, it offers us an understanding of the potential for cumulative and affective artmaking to build communities of care as an inclusive and emancipatory learning tool.

缓解一天的压力：女性福祉在线社区艺术项目

本文讲述了一个大学社区参与项目的故事，该项目于 2020 年春末开始，当时世界处于封锁状态。人们对妇女福利和福祉的日益关注受到了质疑，因为她们是弱势群体，有着复杂的需求并遭受了社会造成的困难。结合创新的女性社区项目，这项研究考虑了基于艺术的在线支持作为平台的价值，通过该平台提供一个非评判性和正念空间，重点关注身份和赋权。该研究基于每周为弱势女性举办的艺术在线研讨会，并考虑了混合“空间”作为交流支持和集体关怀的教学和实践模型的价值。这个社区参与项目的调查结果强调了通过情境艺术体验主观性的反应和转变。作为艺术教育者，它让我们了解累积和情感艺术创作的潜力，以建立护理社区作为一种包容性和解放性的学习工具。
