Wash Away Your Fears prompts participants to grasp the figurative phrase of washing away your fears, and making it a cathartic action by writing them down with chalk on the sidewalk and washing them away with a purging bucket of water and a broom.
We all have fears — those that have been carried with us since childhood, those that keep us up at night, and those we will inevitably face in our future. They can reveal actual apprehensions or fabricated worries that will never play out in real life. Wash Away Your Fears prompts participants to grasp the figurative phrase of washing away your fears, and make it a literal, cathartic action. Share and let go of the fears you carry by writing them down with chalk on the sidewalk, and then washing them away with a purging bucket of water and a broom.
