Art as Therapy?
Opened September 24, 2024. On display now.
Lynn Rodeman Metzger Galleries
In 2023, Ohio became the eighth state to pass legislation to license art therapists – but the profession has more than 85 years of history. Art as Therapy? is a new exhibit examining the history, training, and practice of art therapy. Based primarily on the collection of local art therapist Heidi Larew, visitors are invited to consider the question that has divided the field since its origins: is artistry a tool for psychotherapy, or a healing act in and of itself?
Uncover the realities and nuances of art therapy - Art as Therapy? is on display now at the Cummings Center for the History of Psychology.
Art as Therapy? is sponsored by Peg's Foundation. Exhibit programming is presented in partnership with Direction Home Akron Canton.
