Neighborhood Arts Program
Downloaded from: -[]- on 2007-09-12. via: -[via this site (seconderary; 1999)]- Links and further info following the following: Text (from above Cncl of Myrs'99)Arts Council of Fort Worth and Tarrant County 505 Main StreetSuite 200 Fort WorthTX76102 817-870-2564 817-335-6508
The Neighborhood Arts Program (NAP) was founded in 1992 as a way to bring the arts, in the form of classes, performances, workshops, and exhibitions, to Fort Worth's low-income neighborhoods. Research revealed in 1991 that many of our citizens, especially those living in low-income . areas, were not visiting art museums, attending arts performances, or providing arts education for themselves or their children. NAP was formed to develop and deliver the arts to children and families in low-income neighborhoods, to partner with other agencies in neighborhood revitalization, to encourage participation in the arts as an antidote to antisocial behavior, and to suggest paths to self-esteem and civic pride.NAP provides safe, creative, and free or very low-cost after-school, evening, and weekend activities, taught by professional artists, for at-risk children and then- families. Over thirty-six local arts groups are funded by the Arts Council every year to present high-quality arts instruction and presentations throughout city neighborhoods. Many of the arts education programs have evolved into professional arts ensembles, employing . students and professionals alike, who then perform at neighborhood arts centers. The program served 50,000 children and family members last year, and we hope to serve even more in 2000.Coming Up Taller Project

As you know, PTSD is an extremely debilitating mental condition that is difficult to treat. Its symptoms, which include intrusive thoughts and hyper-arousal as well as avoidance and emotional numbing, respond very well to art therapy practices. We have a body of anecdotal evidence that suggests that art therapy is effective in diagnosing and treating PTSD from the decades of work art therapists have undertaken in military and veterans hospitals in the past decades. I was able to see first hand its effectiveness with veterans through my work at Walter Reed. I know from my experience that art therapy can vastly expedite the treatment of PTSD allowing more of our solders to effectively heal their physiological trauma. -[]- -[]- -[]- -[]- {Back to TOP: Music/Art Therapy List}
