Venice: Elementary School Unveils Multicultural Art Therapy Mural Project
The Argonaut | By Gary Walker
Art has long been a vehicle for self expression in adults and children. It can also be a tool for those who have been subjected to trauma and in some cases a lifeline for students who have trouble coping with difficult academic, emotional and physical challenges.
A collaboration between Broadway Elementary School in Venice and the “Share and Care” initiative at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center was displayed Feb. 13 at the elementary school in the form of a colorful, multicultural art therapy mural that school representatives see as an outlet for students to release emotions that they may find hard to access.
