The Cork Art Therapy Summer School welcomes participants from all over the world, providing them with a unique opportunity to learn about and experience the Art Therapy process. This summer school is run by the department of Arts in Health and Education where the longest running Art Therapy Training in Ireland is held. We have the use of beautiful Studios spaces within the Crawford College of Art and Design.

 

Choose one workshop from a fascinating choice of four. Over five days, let the adventure unfurl, and through your own creativity come to a deeper appreciation of both Art Therapy and yourself. A series of lectures help contextualize the history, conceptual framework and current practice of Art Therapy. This may be your first step on the road to a career in Art Therapy. It may be an opportunity to re-engage with your creative identity.  If you are a trainee or qualified therapist, it will be an investment in both your personal and professional development (25 CPD points awarded). Every year this course proves to be an invaluable personal encounter, whatever one's motivation for attending.
