Another relaxing therapeutic art session today, ‘Letting Go’ of the emotional baggage we carry. Today’s session was inspired by the work of artist Erica Pang. Thanks to Argyll&Bute TSI Community Fund for funding the various therapeutic art sessions we are currently offering.


Art is truly a medicine. A quiet reflective peer session turned into hilarity. All had fun creating, connecting. If feeling low, disengaged, anxious give this a go. Everyone needs some funky roosters in their life. Thank you ExpressiveMonkey for inspiration. Argyll&Bute TSI
