Creative Arts Therapies Crossover Seminar

Exploring Interdisciplinary Skill Sharing as Creative Arts Therapists

Monday, March 18th, 2024

 

6:00pm - 8:00pm

About the Seminar

MIYA Creative Care proudly presents the Creative Arts Therapies Crossover Seminar, an online event aimed at bringing creative arts therapists together for an evening of collaboration and growth. This seminar is a unique opportunity for professionals to share skills, techniques, and experiences, enhancing the impact of their work with a variety of populations. In the realm of creative arts therapies, professionals often find themselves incorporating elements from other disciplines into their practice — music therapists might use movement to enhance their sessions, while art therapists might integrate music to deepen the therapeutic experience. This seminar recognizes and celebrates the interdisciplinary nature of our work, offering a dedicated opportunity for therapists to learn directly from one another. Workshops will be led by MIYA Creative Care therapists! We look forward to seeing you there!
