All artists are welcome, regardless of experience.
Meetings
Monthly meetings are held
the third Monday of the month. (Usually)
Watch this space for announcements of online meetings held during the winter.
Our next MAG meeting is Monday, January 19, 6:30 PM at Parkview in the community room. The program will be Sarah Tapper doing a presentation on art therapy. What exactly is art therapy? What are the techniques used? What are the benefits? Is it effective? I'm sure there will be more questions.
“If
an art installation gets a patient out of his room or paintings take a
person’s mind off their pain and lower their stress levels, the art
isn’t just decorative anymore. It’s part of the entire model of care.”
– Dr. Lisa Harris
