Art Psychotherapy: Internet Resources

Arts Care's mission is to promote and co-ordinate the development of arts provision in healthcare settings in Northern Ireland for the benefit of patients, residents, staff and visitors.

This provides networking opportunities and facilitates appropriate links, seeking to ensure that through the use of visual, performing and multi-media arts, healthcare environments continue to be enhanced, and the experiences of healthcare users and practitioners continue to be improved.

This national website provides a focal point and resource for the field of arts and health in Ireland via resource documents, project case studies, a directory of contacts, perspectives on a range of issues and current news

Arts & Health: Healthy Aging Through the Arts is a working collaboration of seniors and professional artists, who work on the creative expression of ideas and issues that are important to them. The project provides a forum for expression and communication, exploration and imagination, which in turn fosters a sense of well-being and belonging.
