The dynamic residential summer school is designed for art therapists, therapists, counsellors, artists, teachers, nurses, doctors, social workers, psychiatrists, probation officers, workers in statutory and voluntary agencies, prospective art therapy students, and all those interested in the therapeutic application of art with children and adults.

It runs for a long weekend and includes a combination of presentations and experiential workshops. The Summer School provides a unique forum for persons: interested in using art–making to maintain and/or promote well–being interested in exploring art–making for personal development interested in pursuing Art Therapy / Art Psychotherapy as a profession generally wishing to gain / extend their awareness of the nature of Art Therapy / Art Psychotherapy.
