Testimonials
Arts for Health is an art space where I can go and paint when I don’t have the motivation to manage that in my own house. It helps me leave the house knowing I have somewhere I will feel safe where I am part of a community that supports each other.
Emma Billingham
Arts for Health provides great support to the community. As a new artist I find that there is a sense of belonging, ownership and acceptance that makes me feel calm, satisfied and motivated.
Kim McEvilly
I felt art therapy was a great way to express my feelings about life in general and helped me to stay healthy. I enjoy the art classes and am currently learning to paint in acrylics.

Testimonials
I highly recommend the art therapy class at Arts for Health. I attended weekly sessions for six weeks and saw big changes in how I felt. I understand my emotions and how they affect my body much better now. I've gained confidence and feel more in control of myself and my decisions. Art therapy was a great way to explore my creativity and connect with my emotions.
