Melbourne-based and online. No experience needed.
Our creative wellbeing workshops are designed to support your emotional health.
Through guided art-making, somatic tools, and gentle mindfulness, we help you reduce stress, release emotional tension, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels safe and nourishing.
Participants leave with practical tools for emotional resilience, deeper self-awareness, and a renewed sense of clarity and calm.

FAQs

You do not need to have any prior experience in making art or be an artist to benefit from our workshops. In fact, art therapy is specifically designed to be accessible to individuals of all skill levels, regardless of their artistic abilities.
It focuses on the process of creation rather than the final product, placing emphasis on the therapeutic benefits that arise from engaging in the art-making process. Therefore the workshops are inclusive and suitable for creatives and those who have never picked up a paintbrush before.
