Post Traumatic Growth Art Show

The 15th annual Ursuline College/Tri-C Community College

Art Exhibition

Invites submissions for its February art show:

 

The Transformative Image:

Art Therapy and Post Traumatic Growth

 

Post traumatic growth, a term coined by Tedeschi and Caalhoun in 1995, is defined as “the experience of positive change that occurs as a result of the struggle with highly challenging life crises” (Tedeschi, 2004).  In this exhibition we would like to highlight the artwork of individuals who have used art making and the creative process to transform life’s adversities.

This exhibition is open to all residents of Northeastern Ohio. Entries may be in any visual media but must come ready to hang or display. Artists are encouraged to write a short reflection on the piece(s) submitted describing the personal significance of the artwork. Submissions should reflect some dimension of their healing and recovery.

This is not a juried exhibition.  It is an open art show celebrating the artistic expressions of those who have found healing and inspiration from the creative process. There is no charge for submissions. Space is limited, however, so no more than two works should be submitted. Final presentation of artwork is at the discretion of the Cuyahoga Community College gallery director.

Drop off of artwork is Wednesday, January 21st and Thursday, January 22nd at Gallery East.  The gallery is located at Cuyahoga Community College Eastern Campus in the Education Center near the Harvard Road entrance.  The college’s address is 4250 Richmond Road, Highland Hills, Ohio.

Please call Mary Sender of Tri-C Pre-Art Therapy to arrange art drop off:  216- 987-2475.

The opening reception will be on February 12th, 6-9 pm with live music and refreshments.  Ms. Jackie Lowe Stevenson, psychotherapist, healer, consultant and coach will give a free community lecture at 7:00 pm:

The Courageous Journey of Healing Trauma:

The Path to Authenticity and Well Being

Ms. Stevenson is the founder of "Wolf Creek: Preparation for Medicine Women Ways", a wilderness based training program for women who are interested in preparing to be "caretakers of the sacred". Jackie integrates nature, equine therapy, and indigenous healing traditions in her practice of therapy and consulting. All are welcomed.
