Celebrating Growth With Art
WE ARE HERE, currently installed in the Art Therapy Gallery at the Community Counseling Center, features art by art therapy faculty, students, supervisors, and alumni, and celebrates the opening of a new Lewis & Clark community space for art making.
September 2024 will mark the art therapy program’s sixth year at Lewis & Clark. Program director Mary Andrus describes its expansion into the Community Counseling Center as “an incredible moment in our growth and evolution.”
