Sketchers - brain injury art club

Thursdays 10:00-11:30

This weekly art club focus on art as a therapeutic activity for health and well-being for up to 12 adults (carers/support staff may also join in)

Words from Rhiannon Stokes “The artistic results of the students in such a short time of learning are pretty incredible! Beth’s guidance has drawn out hidden talents as she has encouraged and gently pushed the artists to challenge themselves and try new things. She has also enabled them to see what might be perceived as a dreadful error, can in fact be turned into something beautiful. The classes are calming and encourage the artists to be still, to focus, and forget about everything else. One ‘Sketcher’ described the classes as a ‘spoonful of honey’ and they count down the days until their next meet. Confidence within The ‘Sketchers’ group has increased, not just in their abilities but also in working as a group to inspire each other.”

Sharing this creative learning experience has proved to be beneficial with some great memories and friendship being created.
