Background

Expressive Media, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to foster the growth of therapeutic art programs in both clinical and non-clinical settings-in order to assist those in pain, to enhance personal growth, to inspire creativity, and to benefit the wider community.

The goal is to extend the healing power of the arts to more human beings; and to help those who provide them to do so with sensitivity and respect. We are therefore creating films and other materials in order to educate students, professionals, and others on the therapeutic value of the arts.

The need to make the healing power of the arts available to all people in pain is more urgent than ever. The arts offer a universal language with which to find and articulate a person's authentic Self. The arts also allow us to speak to others and to hear their responses, regardless of cultural difference or geographical distance.
