Art from the Heart

Art from the Heart

Facilitated Creative Arts wellbeing workshops and exhibition for students

Without any expectations each participant is encouraged to express themselves and have fun using paints, canvases and more. Each student will be encouraged to develop personal space, focus and emotional balance.

All individuals who create work through the Art From the Heart workshops will have the opportunity to hang their work in an exhibition which Arts for Life Project will organise within the school. You may choose to create work to sell at school fundraising events. An exhibition and/or art sale acknowledges each student’s achievement and enables them to realise the self-esteem and achievement which comes from watching others react to something they have made themselves. This can provoke a powerful mind-set change.

The Arts provide the opportunity to interact proactively as opposed to reactively. Interactions become non-confrontational when perceived expectations and boundaries are removed. Arts for Life Project’s open approach is holistic and person-centred; ensuring that each participant has the full focus of interaction without personal agenda. There is no forced conversation. Activities are always achievable, calm and permit hidden skills to develop naturally.
