Below: The third year students in our Expressive Arts Training program welcomed Barbara Thompson's graduate level Occupational Therapy class to the Albany studio on November 14 and 16, 2005 for three-hour facilitated intermodal expressive arts sessions. Students Bonnie Harlan, Armelle Lefebvre and Judith Prest gave an overview of the foundations of expressive arts theory followed by an art-making experience, reflection in small groups and harvesting in the larger group. This innovative exchange between students from these different yet complementary professions was not only enjoyable but also a rich opportunity to uncover some of the commonalities between the two fields.
