Due to reduced funding we are unable to offer free art therapy for 2023-24. However we are offering other art therapy options in the way of art therapy workshops. We are able to provide a certain number of subsidized spots  to cover 75% of the cost of these workshops. There will be an announcement on our website in August. Stay tuned!

The Art Therapy planning team is continuing to develop partnerships in the community to address the need for accessible mental health support.

Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy involving self-expression through art making, used as a remedial activity or an aid to diagnosis. Non-verbal and verbal communication and healing occur as thoughts, ideas and emotions are expressed through art. No art skills are necessary.
After having run a successful pilot project in partnership with Regroupement Naissance-Rennaisance in October 2019 with a group of women experiencing birth trauma, we launched our Art Therapy Program. As of spring 2023, the art therapy programming has provided over one hundred people with free art therapy sessions.

 

 

We can’t offer these programs without the generous support of our donors and partners.  To see how you can help visit our Support community art engagement page.
