As a practicing art therapist and art therapy educator, I am sometimes asked to offer my opinions about the field. I've been interviewed a number of times and most recently by Sophia Kalimian, a junior at the Hewitt School in Manhattan. Sophia founded the Arnod Art Club in honor of her art teacher the late Madame Arnod. The mission of the club is to spread kindness and joy through art, provide children with stress-free art experiences and bring awareness to the benefits of creating and sharing art. A most worthy mission.
