Art as therapy?

Scientific evidence suggests that engaging in art-making can have a positive impact on health and well-being. Two studies show art's benefits:

• one, in the Journal of Psychosomatic Medicine, links artistic activities to lower risk of age-related cognitive decline;
• another, in the American Journal of Public Health, links arts and cultural activities to lower depression risk later in life.

Additionally, an American Journal of Public Health review highlights art's wide-ranging health benefits, including stress reduction, improved mood, increased positive emotions, and enhanced social connections.

What are the benefits?

Enhance your wellness by exploring the benefits of stress reduction, improved mental health, and enhanced cognitive function. Find a creative outlet for self-expression and connect with others in a supportive environment, fostering a sense of community and well-being.

Do I need artistic ability?

No previous art experience is required. The main focus is on self-expression: the process of creating art rather than on the final product.
