About Expressive Arts at 32nd & Thorn in San Diego, CA
Expressive Arts is an empowering process that can help us to find a richer vocabulary to bring to our lives. It is a creative approach that uses the five disciplines of the arts – visual, dance/movement, music, drama/theater, and writing/poetry – to access and explore our inner resources. Expressive Arts offers an opportunity to engage in creative activities that can help us to grow a life we love living. These activities are simple and require no prior art experience. By engaging in these creative activities, we can open our senses and access our imagination to discover our own resources.

ARTISTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL & PHYSICAL DISABILITIES
At Expressive Arts @ 32nd & Thorn we have a special love for the amazing art created by adults and children with developmental disabilities and feel honored to help them refine and define their own personal style of art making. In addition to enjoying the process, art making can be a great vehicle for positive social interaction and for building self esteem. All art making is in the Expressive Arts model where we work with our life while we are making art, offering the opportunity to work with daily challenges, grief and loss, goal setting, communication, behavior and what ever shows up on the day we meet. An added joy is the chance to show the finished art in our Ray of Light Gallery and if the artists choose, sell their work. Artists with behavioral issues need to be accompanied by an aid or family member. (Who are invited to join in on the art making!) A free 30 minute session is available to try it out and see if it is a good fit.
