HOPE Series | Self and Nature Connection Through Eco-Art Therapy

About the HOPE Series: Created in 2020 at the start of the pandemic, this free, online series supports the resilience of our global community through social emotional arts. In accordance with our mission, with this series we aim to enhance the innate social-emotional benefits of the arts with supportive practices, such as non-judgmental language and reflection, for self-discovery, connection, and empowerment.

Using the principles of eco-art therapy, we’ll find commonalities of characteristics with natural elements, create inspired imagery, and write, reflect, and share written pieces that deepen our identification with ourselves and the natural world. About the Instructor: Marién Peña is an artist and educator born in Puerto Rico and holds a PhD in Eco-Art Therapy/ Applied Ecopsychology from Akamai University, and she is certified as an expressive arts facilitator.
