SUMMARY:The Power of Art: Recycled Sculptures as Art Therapy and Eco-Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Does the climate crisis keep you up at night? Do you feel hopeless and depressed thinking about the government’s response to climate change? Are you interested in activism? A eco-art therapy study called The Power of Art: Recycled Sculptures as Art Therapy and  Eco-Resistance is currently recruiting participants ages 18-26 to take part in an in-person art therapy workshop series. The study will take place on April 6th\, 13th\, 20th\, 27th from 12-3pm CT at Creative Chicago Reuse Exchange (CCRx).  \n\n\n\nParticipants will complete a survey\, take part in group art therapy sessions focused on using recycled materials to make protest art\, and have open discussion about climate grief and how protest art can be used to cope with despair about climate change. No art experience necessary\, but participants must be able to commit to all four sessions. \n\n\n\nParticipation in this study is unpaid\, but participants will get access to materials at CCRX and enrollment for free. Participants will also be able to keep the art pieces they create during the workshops.  \n\n\n\nPlease read and complete the interest form to receive more information about enrollment. \n\n\n\n\nPower of Art Interest Form\n\n\n\n\nAccess Information\n\n\n\nCreative Chicago Reuse Exchange (CCRx) is wheelchair accessible\, and ASL interpretation is available by request.
