MAY 19TH-JUNE 9TH, 2016
Studio E participants create art using a variety of mediums, such as painting, sketching, collaging and sculpting. The sessions are led by a professional art therapist using an open studio model, which promotes freedome of expression and open sharing. Previous art making or "perceived" talent is not necessary. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to explore individual creativity. The program is available FREE to people with epilepsy courtesy of Lundbeck.
We are now accepting applications for our classes. The classes will be taking We Care Arts in Kettering. Classes will be held every Thursday from 7:00PM-8:00PM starting May 19th and ending June 9th. For more information or to apply, please contact the Epilepsy Foundation of Western Ohio.
