PRESENTATION: "THE HEALING POWER OF ART" WITH ANNE GILL KELLOG

Art therapy utilizes art media, images and the creative art process as reflections of an individual’s development, personality, interests, concerns, and conflicts. Art therapy practice, utilizing developmental and psychological theories, reconciles emotional conflicts; fosters self-awareness and problem solving; aids in reducing anxiety and fostering reality orientation; and increases self-esteem. It is practiced alongside other health programs and treatments. Kellogg’s demo will include an introduction to the subject of “The Healing Power of Art” using visual aids; examples of Anne’s own work; and drawings and reference materials supporting the healing power of art. Join us for an interesting afternoon exploring this unique therapy.
