Art Impact Project

Art Impact Project facilitates supportive art projects designed to provide participants a different way to express themselves through art-making.  With a focus on emotional wellness through creative expression, Art Impact Project’s small-group environment gives participants the chance to self-reflect and safely share their observations.  Each 90-minute session involves the completion of an art project from start to finish.  Projects will vary from week to week, exploring various art media and objectives.

Parking is available outside of the building. Ask for the Veteran art program once in the building. 

Activity Expectation: Indoor, sitting, cushions available 
Sensory Expectations: Indoor environment and forest landscape, very little noise, calming area, natural area sounds 
Available Accommodations: No language interpretation available.
