Adult community members are invited to be part of an introductory art therapy group which combines both written and visual arts.
Art Therapy combines the creative process and psychotherapy, facilitating self-exploration and understanding. Using imagery, colour and shapes as part of the therapeutic process, thoughts and feelings can be expressed that would otherwise be hard to articulate.
Participants will use various art media such as collage, visual journaling, watercolour and fibre arts
