Abstract The Traveling Loom is an example of community-based art therapy in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was designed to foster connections in a city that experienced social, cultural, political, religious, and socioeconomic challenges. The community-based format of The Traveling Loom provided space for interaction amongst community members, thereby helping individuals relate to others with whom they may otherwise not interact. Case examples demonstrate how participants directly expressed themselves, challenged perceptions, forged connections, and developed cross-neighborhood opportunities.

Abstract The authors recount a collaborative art-making journey centered on self-reflexivity to sustain a partnership across racial, social, and cultural differences. The image of a chair, re-imagined as a Humble Chair, was a symbol to anchor critical inquiry. The authors’ explorations provide a pragmatic and artful approach to fostering cultural humility.

Abstract Art therapy is an emerging allied health profession in Singapore, although attitudes toward the role of the service remain unclear. This study surveyed 80 healthcare professionals from two tertiary care hospitals, exploring three areas: (a) perceptions of art therapy, (b) the referral process, and (c) suggestions to increase art therapy utilization. Findings suggest that healthcare professionals perceive art therapy as a form of psychotherapy, but need for clearer referral processes. Additional research in art therapy is necessary to support its implementation in acute healthcare in Singapore.

Abstract The study evaluated the impact of an international online summer program for art therapy students from Mexico, the United States, and Israel on their cultural and global perspectives. Quantitative (pre- and post-program measures of the Global Perspective Inventory) as well as qualitative tools (focus groups, art and written responses) were used. There were significant mean increases in four of the six global perspective inventory scales. Students’ narratives and art responses illuminated four overarching themes: (1) gratitude for global connection, (2) growing awareness of one’s experience and context, (3) growing understanding of similarities and differences, and (4) art as facilitator of intercultural communication. Findings suggest that the program supported the development of culturally informed art therapy.

A Graphic Guide to Art Therapy by Amy E. Huxtable in collaboration with Gaelynn P. Wolf Bordonaro and Libby Schmanke delivers exactly what its title promises: a visual and easily digestible primer on the fundamentals of art therapy. Huxtable discusses starting this project in graduate school as her capstone project at Emporia State University. She further states that this book was born out of a desire to use her background in graphic design and to deliver information she wished she had greater access to as a younger person. The fact that this book was approached with love and care is clear in the illustrative style. The use of comics as a tool for education is well executed here, as the book is easy to read from a visual perspective. The book is organized into sections, which include history, frameworks, and models; theories and approaches; and techniques and directives, as well as information and resources on finding art therapists in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Several case study vignettes are also sprinkled throughout the book. Some of the strongest pages both visually and informationally address common misconceptions about art therapy (what art therapy is and is not), as well as the differences and commonalities between art therapy, therapeutic art, and art classes. Huxtable uses the power and minimalism of a Venn diagram to deftly explain what art therapy is and how it is different from other arts-based practices. Other standout aspects of the book include the section on theories and approaches, which impressively covers psychodynamic theories all the way through integrative approaches in less than 100 pages. This book’s value lies in Huxtable’s choice to use comics as her medium. The use of comics in art therapy is not new, and neither is the use of comics as an educational tool. She makes note of that influence in her preface, presenting the intersection of where art therapy meets art education. She states that her original intended audience was art therapy students, but that she also came to realize that finding information about art therapy can be difficult. In acknowledging this, she points to how elusive our field can sometimes be and highlights the need for more accessible literature. The drawing and writing style feels deliberately simplified but not simplistic, which further enhances its approachability without being patronizing to its readers. In this way, the book feels linked to the graphic medicine movement in its desire for broader access to diverse methods of healing. The definition of graphic medicine introduced in The Graphic Medicine Manifesto is “the intersection between the medium of comics and the discourse of healthcare” (Czerwiec et al., 2015, p. 1). Graphic medicine as a movement and concept lends itself well to art therapy because it is also a “movement for change that challenges the dominant methods of scholarship in healthcare, offering a more inclusive perspective of medicine, illness, disabilit
Amy E. Huxtable与Gaelynn P. Wolf Bordonaro和Libby Schmanke合作的《艺术治疗图形指南》正是其标题所承诺的:关于艺术治疗基础的视觉和易于理解的入门。Huxtable讨论了在研究生院开始这个项目作为她在Emporia州立大学的顶点项目。她进一步表示，这本书的诞生是出于一种愿望，即利用她在平面设计方面的背景，并传达她希望自己年轻时能更多地接触到的信息。事实上，这本书是接近与爱和关怀是清楚的说明性的风格。漫画作为教育工具的使用在这里得到了很好的执行，因为这本书从视觉角度来看很容易阅读。本书分为几个部分，包括历史、框架和模型;理论与方法;技术和指令，以及在美国和英国寻找艺术治疗师的信息和资源。几个案例研究的小插曲也散落在书中。一些最强大的页面在视觉上和信息上都解决了关于艺术治疗的常见误解(艺术治疗是什么，不是什么)，以及艺术治疗，治疗艺术和艺术课之间的差异和共同点。Huxtable利用维恩图的力量和极简主义巧妙地解释了什么是艺术疗法，以及它与其他基于艺术的实践有何不同。这本书的其他突出方面包括理论和方法部分，令人印象深刻的是，在不到100页的篇幅里，从心理动力学理论一直到综合方法。这本书的价值在于Huxtable选择使用漫画作为她的媒介。在艺术治疗中使用漫画并不新鲜，将漫画用作教育工具也不是什么新鲜事。她在序言中提到了这种影响，展示了艺术治疗与艺术教育的交集。她说，她最初的目标受众是艺术治疗的学生，但她也意识到，寻找有关艺术治疗的信息可能是困难的。在承认这一点时，她指出，我们的领域有时是多么难以捉摸，并强调需要更多的通俗文学。画风和文字风格刻意简化，但不过分简单化，这进一步增强了它的平易近人，而不是居高临下的读者。通过这种方式，这本书感觉与图形医学运动联系在一起，因为它渴望更广泛地获得各种治疗方法。《图形医学宣言》中介绍的图形医学的定义是“漫画媒介与医疗保健话语之间的交集”(Czerwiec等人，2015年，第1页)。图形医学作为一种运动和概念，非常适合艺术治疗，因为它也是一种“变革运动，挑战医疗保健领域的主流学术方法，提供更具包容性的医学、疾病、残疾、护理、医疗保健和医疗保健的视角”。图形医学诞生于叙事医学，这是医学人文领域的一部分，从业者试图通过挑战学术的主导方法来更好地教育卫生专业人员。这种观点在Huxtable的作品中得到了回应，她专门使用漫画作为一种工具，为艺术治疗提供了一种途径，这一领域在更广泛的心理学领域或公众中都没有得到很好的理解。作者在内容选择上的一个疏忽是，这本书主要从美国和英国的角度讲述历史和实践，这让人感觉错过了机会。虽然作者使用了不同身份的人物，并特别提到了有色人种的贡献，但所呈现的历史主要集中在对该领域做出贡献的西方白人。当然，这部作品并不是对艺术疗法及其全球历史的深入探索。Huxtable特别指出，这项工作是不具威胁性的，从这个意义上说，她是相当成功的。另一个可能不是作者最初目的的元素，但对于一本打算成为教科书的作品来说，《艺术治疗图形指南》可能会成为国家咨询师考试(NCE)和注册艺术治疗师委员会认证(ATR-BC)考试的优秀学习助手。视觉元素加上从不同来源收集的咨询和艺术治疗概念的紧凑解释，令人难以置信的方便。这本书很好地与文学和学术涵盖了专业发展艺术治疗课程。总之，这本书运用了幽默，以及实用的语言和形象，取得了很大的效果。 这本书在视觉和文字上都清晰而简洁地总结了历史，以及构成西方艺术治疗方法及其与咨询交叉的技术和实践。这与Huxtable的愿望有明显的重叠，即创造一个平易近人的作品，与图形医学的价值观围绕着易用性

Abstract A 10 week supportive arts program was conducted in Jinja, Uganda via the collaboration between a local nongovernmental organization, a Ugandan artist, and two art therapists from the United States. The artist facilitated weekly artmaking sessions for former unhoused youth being served by the organization, as well as engaged in weekly virtual meetings with the art therapists. Anecdotal observations of the program indicated therapeutic benefits, such as participant’s general willingness and flexibility, increased adaptability to art making, and investment in program sessions. Further implications include the impact of colonialism and the resulting power imbalance that influences the relationship between artists and art therapists.

Abstract This study investigated the effect of mandala coloring on the attention level of children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Iran. This research was a quasi-experimental pre–post study (N = 38) with a control group. The results showed that mandala coloring statistically increased the attention level of children with ADHD both when compared to the control group and within the intervention group. Mandala coloring, as a complementary therapy, might be effective in improving attention in children with ADHD.

Abstract This case study integrated feminist theory and social action approaches through the use of a storycloth (fiber arts-based intervention). The feminist approach of being transparent and egalitarian focused on addressing social, cultural, and political issues that are not always covered in the therapeutic setting but may be an underlying cause of distress and mental health issues. The case follows 35 art therapy sessions between a white art therapist in training and a LGBTQIA African American woman, who had a history of trauma. As an outcome, the client experienced a therapeutic space to tell her story and enabled her to self-advocate within art therapy sessions which translated to new understanding within her day-to-day life.

Abstract Art therapy reduces trauma-related psychopathology in refugee youth. Given the added stress of COVID-19 on traumatized refugee populations, we adapted art therapy for refugee youth and their families in the virtual space. We describe program development, implementation and experientials, and clinical recommendations illustrated through two cases. Observations and feedback support art therapy as a tool to address socioemotional functioning in families who resettle as refugees and foster positive emotions, sense of self and community, confer stress coping skills, and enhance resilience. In light of the persistence of the pandemic, the unprecedented number of global refugees, and their unique needs for mental health services, virtual art therapy can expand accessibility and reach of beneficial methods to address trauma in refugee groups.

For those of us who still send old school greeting cards, the birthday selection continues to be plentiful – particularly the milestone ones. The choices that celebrate 40 are quite a mix. Some ameliorate 40 as the dreaded tipping point for becoming old (“age is just a number”). Others revert to more youthful times (“18 with 22 years of experience”). And still others honor the moment (“40 is the new awesome”). I have 40 on my mind as this year marks the 40th volume of Art Therapy.
