Postgraduate Art Therapy Open Event
This event is a great opportunity to get a feel for the course and what studying Art Therapy at postgraduate level is really like. You’ll be able to spend time in the art therapy studio spaces, see where teaching happens, and experience the creative and reflective environment that supports learning and professional development.
You’ll also hear from the Course Leader, who will talk you through how the course is structured, the approach to teaching, and what you can expect as you progress through the course. There will be plenty of time to ask questions and chat about any aspects of the course you’d like to explore further.
If you’re thinking about taking the next step into art therapy training, this is a relaxed and welcoming way to learn more and see whether the course feels right for you.
