VPS 320 - Topics in Art Therapy

Three Credits
Not Offered 2016-2017

In this studio course students will explore the creative process and its potential as a therapeutic tool.  Students will be working in small groups and individually to put theory into practice using various media (topics to be determined with each iteration).  Students will be expected to explore the process from both the perspective of the practitioner and that of participant creating art that is meaningful to them.

Prerequisite(s): This class requires no previous art experience though it is suggested that students consider taking VPH 230 - Art and Psychology: Introduction to Art Therapy  in addition as it will deepen one’s understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of Art and Expressive Therapy.
