LASALLE College oi the Arts: MA Art Therapy Lecture

Art Therapists as Peace Builders

Dr Jordan S. Potash will present an evening lecture to the LASALLE and mental health communities as well as the general public as part of the visiting artist series by LASALLE’s MA Art Therapy programme.

Art therapists can draw on the traditions of peace scholars, activists, artists and advocates to enact socially responsive practices. Taking into account both negative peace (violence reduction) and positive peace (justice assurance), art therapists can apply their services to diminishing disputes and tensions while fostering equity and inclusion. For a holistic approach to peace, art therapists can facilitate opportunities for peace in personal, relational, communal and societal arenas.

This presentation will offer an overview of peace-building frameworks with examples from art therapist led projects to demonstrate how art therapists can be partners in peace advocacy.
