🎨 Mental Health & The Artist: The Importance Of Art For Art’s Sake: Live Chats on IG Live with Kim Foster Yardley & Erin Candela (@candles_) 🎨

Put a reminder in your calendar for April 28th at 4:30PM, to tune in to the upcoming ''Live Chat'' with Kim Foster Yardley (@thementalgameclinic), a Toronto-based Psychologist and Coach.

The ways we engage with our practice, and the expectations defined therein are important elements in negotiating a healthy and sustainable relationship with art-making.
