Healing Through Art (16+)

Healing Through Art

Ages 16+

In this transformative class, participants will explore the powerful connection between creativity and emotional well-being. Through various art forms such as painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed media, students will engage in mindful, expressive exercises designed to promote self-discovery, healing, and inner peace. No prior artistic experience is necessary. The focus will be on the process of creation, rather than the final product, allowing each individual to release stress, explore their emotions, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness. With gentle guidance and a supportive environment, this class offers a safe space to heal, reflect, and embrace the therapeutic potential of art.

Whitney Brown

Whitney Brown

My name is Whitney Brown and I am an artist and therapist born and raised in Oberlin, Ohio. I
have a Bachelor’s degree in Art Education and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health. I
began my art career teaching FAVA art classes and camps before moving into public education,
where I taught high school art for 12 years. Now a clinical mental health therapist in private
practice, I enjoy combining my passion for art and therapy to support self-discovery and
transformation through creative expression. I love teaching all art forms with a variety of different
mediums but for personal pleasure I enjoy using chalk pastel, acrylic paint and clay best.

scholarships & aid

FAVA reviews and considers all application for scholarship assistance. While we may not be able to provide a complete scholarship to all those who request it, we are committed to making our classes available to as many people as possible – regardless of individual financial circumstances. For this reason, it is important that all scholarship requests are received well in advance of the class starting date, so we may allocate our available funds accordingly. We may consider any of the following factors when determining eligibility for scholarships:

  • Annual family income
  • Individual or special circumstances
  • Whether the applicant qualifies for the National Free/Reduced Price School Lunch program
    (for students age 18 & younger)


**FAVA also encourages applicants to consider partial scholarship assistance, in which case the student only pays some portion of the class tuition.

All information will be kept confidential and will be used solely to determine the amount of scholarship assistance to be provided.
