Description
Exploring Our Personal Landscapes is a five-part creative art therapy series designed for local makers and creatives who want space to reflect, explore, and express themselves through art. Using the metaphor of different “landscapes” as our guiding theme, participants will journey through inner terrain such as memory, emotion, identity, and resilience using creative expression as a map.
Each session introduces a new landscape and a collection of art materials, allowing participants to explore meaning through drawing, sculpture, textiles, and mixed media. You are welcome to bring materials from home, but everything you need will also be provided. There is no pressure to perform or share in any particular way. The only expectation is to show up as yourself.
These sessions are designed to go “only as deep as you are willing to swim back to the surface,” making this a safe and accessible introduction to therapeutic art-making.

Using landscape metaphors to reflect on self, story, and emotion
A variety of media including drawing, sculpture, textiles, and mixed media
