ART4HEALING & STUDIO ART
ART SPEAKS WHERE WORDS CANNOT.
ART4HEALING
Certified in an established program called "Art4Healing", Crescent Moon Center's director will facilitate a theme-based two-hour art workshop using acrylics, watercolors, pastels and collage. It is a fast-paced painting project created around themes and questions within the themes, some allowing only 2 minutes to respond to. At the end of each exercise, participants are encouraged to share about their painting experience and the emotions involved. This is an educational exercise, and no prior art experience is necessary.
STUDIO ART
Center participants will have access to a well-equipped art studio which allows self-expression through art in an unstructured environment, selecting from a range of materials such as paint, clay, etc. An Artist in Residency will provide a peer mentorship to all particpants.

Program Participant Testimonials:
“This program got me in touch with a part of myself that I was longing to get in touch with. It gave me a safe place to be creative, to access my depth through creativity.”
“I learned so much from... the horses. That was one of the most powerful things I have ever experienced”.
“One way this program impacts my commitment to recovery is the intense feeling of community. I’ve been in touch with people after the program, and they’re all sober people, so it encourages me to stay sober.”
