the project

According to a 2016 study published in the Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, less than an hour of creative activity can reduce your stress and have a positive affect on your mental health , regardless of artistic experience or talent. Research supports their assessment: for example, art therapy helps people feel more in control of their own lives, and helps relieve anxiety and depression, including among cancer patients, tuberculosis patients in isolation, and military veterans with PTSD. COVID-19 has reduced some activities that senior adults participate in, and has increased lonliness, further isolation and in most cases, depression. For these very reasons, our project is necessary.
