Art Equals empowers everyone to be an artist, providing community-driven accessible opportunities for creative growth and healing.

 

Everyone can create.

No matter what our age, ability, background, or beliefs, we all have the capacity to create something in this world. Whether it is a poem, a painting, or a mud pie, we honor the creative spirit of every individual and seek to provide safe space, tools, and encouragement to foster self-expression.

No one stands alone.

We believe that every individual is part of a larger community and that caring for both is an important part of finding balance. While we recognize the unique voice of every individual, we also believe that we are stronger together.

We work with people, not “on” people.

Healing is a partnership that involves listening, seeking collective knowledge, and understanding that people and communities have an innate ability to know what they need. We work to support our communities as they find their unique path to wholeness.

Art = Support

We aim to make creativity accessible to everyone, not just those who call themselves artists. We recognize the healing power of self-expression and the importance of sharing this in community.

Partner with us to provide art therapy services within your organization.

Art = Accessibility

No matter who you are or where you are in life, there is a path to creating for you. At Art Equals, we believe that everyone has the ability to create and express themselves and doing so just takes support. We’re here to help.

We offer expertise in working to meet the challenges that traditional art materials and techniques may present. Whether it’s using adaptive equipment or just finding the right creative outlet for you, we work to find that unique path to self-expression.
