Art and Aphasia: creative art is a tool for repairing neural networks, and a medium that transcends verbal language and stimulates conversation!

Did you know that activation of the right hemisphere linked with the practice of the visual arts can promote language recovery?

Come join us at our next session on Friday January 27th, 10-1:30! Drop in any time for more person-centered, holistic healing and support!

If you are an out-of-state resident and would like to join us virtually, email [email protected]!
