ArtHEALS generously supported by:

ArtHEALS is the primary program under our ArtReach umbrella which encompasses all educational programming on and off-site. ArtHEALS programming employs artist-led exercises and art-making to address specific symptoms of trauma and mental health challenges.

ArtHEALS teaches coping strategies and exercises for participants to employ when they are experiencing symptoms on their own.  There is great and growing need within our region to address trauma.
