ART FOR SELF-DISCOVERY™
was created to answer the desire many people have expressed for a deeper, freer experience of themselves. Whether that may be a wish to be more playful, to release feelings, or simply to enjoy the feel of the brush and paint, it is a search for something missing in their day to day routines.

The art workshops offered in this program are for people who are looking not only for a creative outlet but also for people who have a curiosity about themselves and are open to their own life's journey.

Nurturing the Child's Creative Spirit:
6 Week Art Program for Self-Discovery
at Millenium Children's Therapy
in Huntington, NY


Helping Children Succeed

The rise in the number of children
diagnosed with ADD, ADHD and PDD
has risen dramatically in recent years.
Our schools have more of a need than
ever to utilize community agencies
that can support parents and provide
enrichment that will help children
achieve, in and out of the classroom.

Art making provides unique
opportunities for growth that go beyond written and oral expression. Nurturing
the Child’s Creative Spirit is a 6-week
program of art experiences
that help children to:

Increase attention span
Foster self-reliance
Strengthen motor skills
Promote self-esteem and
emotional learning
