About
|
|
Art for Health was set up in 2004 to help people make their
own connection to the world of art and self discovery.
Through careful guidance it offers a non-judgemental, safe place where you can explore painting and drawing.
The studio is able to accommodate groups of up to six adults or children and Jo Kimpton, who runs Art for Health
often works with people on a one-to-one basis.
