Arts - Based Well-Being ToolBox
Presenter(s)
Isabel Fryszberg
The Arts-Based Well-Being Toolbox is a course both for your professional work practice and to nourish your own creative practice and wellness. It will transform the way you work and play. It will tap into your imagination and intuition so you can put your visions into practice. I have created this course to help you gain the skills and confidence to start your own arts-based wellness program at your place of work. I will guide you through the steps needed to develop and deliver wellness based art programs in a fun and creative way to support your own well-being as well as your work since they both affect each other. It’s all about discovering and nourishing your creative process that will make both your work life and your own life more joyful, fun and reduce stress. Through videos and live zoom gathering you will experience a variety of mediative art forms. I will give you an art supply list and link where to purchase the materials and provide a lot of easy to follow demos. No matter how you approach this toolbox, you will find it timely, practical and restorative!
Here’s some of the stuff we will cover: Where to begin and develop an arts based program, how to create treatment plans or new curriculum for you’re the people you work with, how to do and create meditative art activities, collaborative writing and songwriting, strategic partnerships, collaborating with other artists, non profits and researchers, creating a team to accomplish your goals to support your vision, grant-writing, documentation, how to celebrate the work you are doing and engage the public by curating art events like art exhibits, creating a music album and concerts. These are examples of how I have found ways of applying my own creative strengths at work and I have listed the ways I have fostered them. Ultimately whatever your own creative strength is you will find a way to apply it at work.
