Upcoming Events

Artist and board-certified art therapist Melissa Diaz will reference the creation of community art initiatives and the concept of collaboration to discuss both professional development and personal and community wellness. Diaz will speak about her journey as an art therapist, how it intersects with her art practice, and art as a tool for social activism and empowerment. She will also share the importance of letting your art therapy training impact your artwork and vice versa, acknowledging the mutuality of impact as a source of developing one’s framework. She will share examples from her community art initiatives, clinical and academic programming, and practical information on current sentiments on the field of art therapy and the incorporation of wellness practices in other creative capacities.
