Art Therapy Centre
Who we are:
Art therapy in academic settings provides students with opportunities for self-expression, emotional hygiene, and self-reflection. The creative process promotes mental health, personal development, creativity, and social bonding. Art therapy activities help students cope with academic stress, contribute to mental well-being, and promote a holistic approach to learning and life. Artcentre creates a safe and stimulating environment in which students can develop their creative skills and discover new forms of relaxation and self-support.
Activities we plan to implement:
- Providing regular art therapy activities focused on relaxation, creativity, and mental health support.
- Implementation of various creative techniques – painting by numbers, diamond painting, iconography, acrylic drip painting, acrylic or watercolor painting, calligraphy, wood burning, and board games that promote creativity and social interaction.
- Ongoing addition of new art techniques based on students' needs and interests.
- Organizing one-off creative challenges during the academic year, such as:
– Create your own candle (creative candle making)
– Freshen up your home with a lavender doll or sachet
– Would you like to try your hand at wood burning? (making a wooden cup coaster)
– Become a master soap maker
– Decorate your home with your own accessories (clay crafting)
– Inspiration in light (making a mosaic candle holder) Supporting students in finding opportunities for personal development, relaxation, and creative self-expression through artistic activities.
