Paint and Relax: Corporate and University- Art for Well-Being

The Benefits of Art for Well-being

We are coming to understand that creative pursuits can play a significant role in improving mental health. Stress can prevent us from being fully focused leading to burnout.

As a Secondary Visual Art teacher, Christina from Art and About knows the pressures that come with the workplace and the positive impact of artmaking. This led Christina to create Paint and Relax: Art for Well-Being.

Griffith University Nathan and Brigidine College Indooroopilly realise the benefits of a creative outlet each hosting regular Art for well-being workshops.
