Many children have difficulty navigating the complex social world of their peers. In this group, kids will use drama, expressive arts and creative play to practice social skills and learn to regulate their own anxiety. Through art, children can explore and express their feelings. Drama therapy gives children the opportunity to actively rehearse new ways of interacting with others. No art or theatrical experience necessary.
When: Wednesdays 4-5:30 pm, Starting September 14th, 2011
Where: (www.livingartscenter.org)
Cost: $275 for the series if the full amount is paid a week before the first session. Otherwise, $30 per session
