Art Therapy In Namibia |
Creative Arts Therapists Cheryl Walpole & christi meyer volunteered at an environmental educational camp in the Namib desert, called NaDEET. They provided art therapy to the campers who range in age and economic status. We left the camp with the resources to not only enrich their culture, but with the ability to achieve self-expression through art. for further information please feel free to contact either of us at our email: cheryl@arttherapynewyorktonamibia.com arttherapynewyorktonamibia.com |
Happy Holidays Everybody!
We hope everyone has had a wonderful 2010 year so far! Thanks again to all of you who have donated to Art Therapy: New York to Namibia! With your support we have been able to strengthen our efforts to get our non-profit off the ground. We have come a long way since February of this year, and we still have a long way to go. Your donations have kept us going through these past few months and we are exceptionally grateful. We are continuing to educate people on the importance of our cause to give children in Namibia, Africa the support they need to fulfill their highest potential. Last month, we traveled to Sacramento, CA and presented our cause at the annual American Art Therapy Association’s conference with great success.
These past few months we have been in the process of creating a grant proposal to send out to organizations and gather the remaining funds needed to make the last huge step in our journey. Think about us these next few months as we strive to get the remaining money we need to book the plane tickets! In addition, we have created a Kickstarter page https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nyctonamibia/art-therapy-new-york-to-namibia
