Art for All Mental Health

About Art for All Mental Health

Art for All Mental Health is dedicated to supporting adults living with a mental health condition across Cheltenham and the wider Gloucestershire area. We deliver therapeutic creative art classes designed to help people manage their mental health condition.

​​​​​​

We run sessions at Gas Green Community Centre, in community venues, in local green spaces and through our outreach programme, where we take our creative and therapeutic sessions directly to other organisations and communities.

​

Our priority is to provide a welcoming and supportive space where people use the well evidenced benefits of being creative as a tool to sustainable improve mental health. People can engage in a wide range of creative practices such as drawing, printmaking, creative woodworking and craft. We understand first hand how being creative is a powerful tool for healing and improved mental health.​ Living with a mental health condition can be isolating, our sessions offer opportunities for people to connect with others who have a shared experience. Through attending our classes participants describe an increased sense of purpose, reduce feelings of loneliness and gain tools to help overcome the mental health challenges they face.
