Art as a Therapy (Path to Peace): A Journey of Healing
Introduction:
Welcome to “Art as a Therapy (Path to Peace),” a transformative 12 sessions workshop designed to guide you on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. In this series of 90-minute sessions, we will explore the therapeutic power of art as a tool for managing anxiety, stress, and panic, allowing you to tap into your innate creativity to find inner calm and balance.
Led by experienced art therapy facilitators, each session offers a safe and supportive space for self-expression, reflection, and connection with others. Through a variety of artistic mediums and guided exercises, you’ll learn to harness the healing potential of art to navigate and transform your emotional landscape.
No prior art experience is necessary—just an open mind and a willingness to explore. Join us as we embark on this journey together, using art as our guide to peace, resilience, and personal growth.
