NEW ART STUDIO

The New Art Studio is a weekly art therapy community for refugees and asylum seekers which takes place in Islington, currently one day per week. Experienced, state registered Art Psychotherapists work with members to make art in a safe and encouraging environment, to alleviate stresses due to traumas. We hold exhibitions to connect with the public and give members a sense of achievement.
