Art as Therapy While Building Community
At River City Advocacy and Counseling Center, we believe in the transformative power of art as a language for connection and healing. Our therapeutic art room, open to the public Monday through Thursday from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM, offers a welcoming space where individuals can explore creativity as a path to emotional well-being. Through various art modalities— including painting, sewing, jewelry making, drawing, pottery, poetry, music, and more—participants engage in meaningful self-expression while receiving peer support and mentorship. In this nurturing environment, we foster a sense of community and resilience, providing opportunities for individuals to connect, share experiences, and celebrate milestones such as birthdays and holidays. By embracing the healing potential of art, we help those struggling with mental health challenges find hope, strength, and a deeper sense of belonging. The art room is not only a place for creative exploration, but a space where individuals can heal, grow, and build the resilience needed to navigate life’s challenges.
