Art Activities For Better Mental Health

Better mental health achieved through art projects that reduce stress and ease anxiety. Taught by a Deaf artist using English and Auslan so diverse participants build friendships while creating art.

* Each class will include two projects that can be completed during class for the participants to take home.
* The focus is not on creating “masterpieces” but on learning art techniques that are fun to do while relaxing the mind and encouraging calm.
* These projects will be demonstrated by Rachel (facilitator) in both English and Auslan using the methods below:
* Via live video overhead cam and presentation slides to show a step-by-step approach on the large screen.
* Hardcopy handout with presentation or emailed link for viewing on participants' devices.
* Rachel will answer questions and provide one-on-one support to everyone.
* All art supplies will be available for those who don’t have their own. Art supplies can also be purchased at reduced cost for those who want their own.
