October 27th, Wednesday, 1:00pm to 4:00pm professional artist Suzanne Boeck, founder of “Together We Can” Art Therapy classes for people with Alzheimers and other disabilities, will present a 3 hour workshop on how to conduct an art therapy class at various assisted living and nursing home facilities or just better understand how to work with a friend or relative, introducing art therapy to them.
The workshop will cover what art therapy techniques she presently uses, supplies that are needed to introduce watercolor painting and other media, and shares examples of how to handle problems that may arise in an art therapy class setting. Students will experience a hands-on art therapy class session during the workshop.
The “Together We Can” workshop students, that are interested, may accompany Suzanne Boeck and observe one of her actual art therapy sessions in action, following the workshop.
Cost is $35.00 for this 3 hour “Together We Can” Workshop. Supplies will be provided by instructor. Students must pre-register at the North Port Art Center or go in our new online store. Any questions, call Suzanne Boeck at 426-4858 or the Art Center at 423-6460.
