Creative Arts Therapy Week Open House

Ever wonder what arts therapy is all about and who can benefit from it? The Kardon Institute for Arts Therapy opens its doors to the public and potential clients Thursday, March 24 for an evening of information, hands-on activities and displays that will explain how art, dance and music therapy help people with a range of disabilities.

Creative Arts Therapy Week was established by The National Coalition of Creative Arts Therapies Associations as a way to increase awareness of creative arts therapy. During a week in March each year, creative arts therapists sponsor special workshops, exhibitions, career days and other events to share their work with the public and other professionals.

Visitors can tour the center and see board certified and registered therapists leading dance, music and art activities in the institute studios, the computer music lab and music resource library.
 

Creative arts therapy students or those interested in pursuing a career in Music, Dance/Movement, or Art Therapy can also get valuable information from therapists and Kardon Institute staff. Light refreshments will be offered as well. For more information, visit http://www.kardoninsitute.org, or call (215) 637-2077.
