This program provides a solid foundation in Expressive Arts (EXA) practices through experiential and didactic learning, and by encouraging creative inquiry. Special focus is put on creative practice, and the exploration of the intermodal process of EXA as we dive into a sampling of various arts modalities and prepare for offering EXA to individuals and groups.
“Now I see creative arts and the healing process as inextricably linked. I see them as symbiotically connected and truly strengthened by one another.”
