A feature in BAAT Newsbriefing Dec 2015
A fascinating slew of articles written by various MAGSIG members featured in December 2015 issue of BAAT Newsbriefing. The 4 articles give insight into how our members have brought art therapy practice successfully into gallery and museum settings. They are great overviews that can be shared easily to further promote art therapy beyond clinical settings.
You can find them here, in one handy document.
If you would like to quote form the articles, please reference them to BAAT, Newsbriefing December 2015 and the individual authors.
