17 Aug Willow Arts Is So Much More Than Art Therapy
The Willow Arts Community may seem like “art therapy” but rather than a clinical approach with a therapist it provides a free, peer-led creative experience and connection for people across Niagara living with mental illnesss, substance use and addiction. For some, being with people at the Willow may be their only connection with people. Founder and Executive Director Leigh McLeod explains how the Willow helps recovery. You don’t have to have any art experience. There’s no judgement. Courses are offered across Niagara and include everything from painting to music to soft art. Learn more about how you or someone you know can exerience the Willow.
