For Creative Arts Therapy Week, we’re celebrating the power of creativity to support mental health. 🎨

Creative arts therapy offers people a meaningful way to explore their thoughts and emotions through art, colours, and imagination - often fostering connection in a supportive environment with their peers.

We’re grateful for the ways creativity helps youth and young adults feel seen and empowered every day. Keep an eye out for the many creative programs offered at Laing House through our programs! 💙

For Music Therapy Awareness Month, we’re celebrating the power of music to support healing, connection, and self-expression at Laing House. 🎵

Music therapy creates space for folks to explore emotions, reduce stress, build confidence, and connect with others - often in ways words alone can’t.

We’re grateful for the role music plays in supporting mental health and for the moments of expression it makes possible every day.

For members, Laing House hosts Music Therapy every Saturday through the Maritime Conservatory's Centre for Music Therapy. We hope to see you there! 💙 Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts
