The Art for Wellness Group is offered to students, staff and faculty in collaboration with the Graduate Art Therapy Program and the University Counseling Center, to support healthy coping skills and positive ways of reducing stress using art materials. Each week, a theme is introduced and art materials presented for participants to explore self-expression and promote emotional balance. Art experience is not necessary! Bring a friend!
