Creative expression is often a means of communication for those who have no words. Especially in cases of traumatic incidents, making art is both therapeutic and useful, regardless of your level of skill.
For those touched by cancer, whether it’s the patient themselves, their family or caregivers, it is a difficult journey, altering their lives forever.
Expressive art therapy is considered a therapeutic combination of using art as a method to release stress and improve the mental health of anyone on the journey with cancer. #artishappy is an initiative designed to bring expressive art solutions to hospitals, centres and other cancer spaces.
We believe the best chance of beating the beast is a happy mind.
