Art & Creativity for Healing, who we are and what we do: In 2020 Art & Creativity for Healing (ACFH) celebrated 20 years of offering our unique workshops for children and adults suffering from abuse, illness, grief or stress; on-site and at hospitals and non-profit agencies. ACFH facilitates the creative process while encouraging emotional healing--and these two paths often intersect when words are not adequate, and pain is too deep. Our mix of artistic development and expression coupled with a creative healing model allows participants to learn a new way of communicating through color that encourages emotional breakthroughs and further enhances the therapy process. Unlike other art programs that employ a loose format of free expression, our curriculum contains strictly guided exercises (guided by our trained facilitators) and is designed to elicit emotional responses.
Since our inception, we have directly fostered transformational change in more than 85,000 children, women and families who have found our creative intervention a valuable tool to address the often unbearable pain in their lives. With over 40+ non-profit program partners in Orange County we have created an effective methodology for reaching people in pain.
We need volunteers to help raise funds or collect new art supplies such as; pack of 12 markers, pack of 12 colored pencils, pack of 12 oil pastels, 2 small 6 x 9" drawing pad, 6 x 9" journal, watercolor strip with brush, set of 12 acrylic paint pots, sharpener, gel pens

Description
Art & Creativity for Healing facilitates Art4Healing workshops for children and adults suffering from abuse, illness, grief or stress on-site, at hospitals, and non-profit facilities. Art & Creativity for Healing has often been referred to as a "hybrid" program--a mix of artistic development and expression coupled with a creative healing model that compliments traditional talk therapies with a unique approach.
Art & Creativity for Healing was founded in 2000, with a vision that the creative process and emotional healing often intersect when words are not adequate, and pain is too deep. Our methods enable participants to learn a new way of communicating through color that encourages emotional breakthroughs and further enhances the therapy process. Unlike other art programs that employ a loose format of free expression, our curriculum contains strictly guided exercises (guided by our trained facilitators) and is designed to elicit emotional responses.
By the close of this year, we will have directly fostered transformational change in more than 90,000 children, women and families who have found our creative intervention a valuable tool to address the often unbearable pain in their lives. With more than 40 Orange County non-profit program partners, we have created an effective methodology for reaching people in pain.
