Throughout the United States, during the second week of March, creative arts therapists will be
sponsoring special workshops, exhibitions, career days and other events to share their work
with the public, and with other professions.
 
The Creative Arts Therapies include art therapy, dance/movement therapy, drama
therapy, music therapy, poetry therapy and psychodrama. These modalities are
applied in rehabilitative, psychiatric, medical, community and educational agencies. The
objectives of the creative arts therapies are to foster health, communication and
expression; to enhance self-awareness; to promote the integration of emotional, physical,
social and cognitive functioning; and to facilitate positive change in human experience and
behavior.

Creative Arts Therapists invite you to join us in this celebration and to visit our Web site
nccata.org for information on specific events in your town, city and state. And we
invite you to contact the member Associations listed below if you wish to schedule your own
special event.
