To All Members as requested by the City of Markham:

Let’s Art About It – Art Therapy for Seniors is a group therapy program that utilizes art-making to help seniors combat mental and emotional challenges as a result of COVID-19. The creative process can foster self-esteem and self-awareness, promote insight, and support cognitive functions, among other benefits for wellbeing. Join the Markham Arts Council for small group sessions on Coping with Change and Finding Calm during Chaos!

These free sessions will be offered virtually over the course of the year. Led by a Registered Art Therapist, participants will express, explore, and understand their emotions through a variety of art mediums.

Participants have the option to choose single sessions or enroll in a curriculum program of three sessions.
