The Art of Art Therapists :
Resilience through Art in 2020-2021 2020 brought many challenges to our communities. We had to adjust our lives and our work, holding space for others’ emotions while also sorting through our own. Art-making became a way for so many to process, connect, grieve, and fight for justice throughout this year. The artwork created symbolizes our ability to be resilient in the face of challenges. We would like to highlight the art of art therapists as a way for us to all reconnect with our artist identities and to reconnect with each other within our local art therapy community. We invite you to show us what you have been making this past year and highlight your experience with resilience
