Well, our second 10  week community Art Therapy project ends this week at Westway open Arms, Eastfield. Thanks to Yorkshire Coast Homes who funded this work through their participatory budget Scheme, Your Choice Your Vote. We shall be bidding in this next round, so we hope, if successful, that this valuable work will continue. This image was taken with the permission of the participants, who are all hoping this valuable work will be able to continue .

We are now recruiting to our series of four 6 week art therapy groups to be held in the big studio at The Street.. Join now – complete the contact form on the website or email me at admin@arttherapyyorkshire.org.uk .

Each group will be encouraged to develop both their own work and the work of their group colleagues, to plan, organise and present and host an exhibition of their work to the public at the end of the six week programme. To take part you should be 19 +, unemployed (working 8 hours or less per week) and have the right to work in the European Union.
