Crafternoon: Book Art with Silver Hill Hospital
May 5, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Join us for a special Crafternoon with art therapist Stephanie Sampson of Silver Hill Hospital. Give an old book new life by repurposing it into a work of art. This project utilizes old hardcover books with sewn bindings and allows people to decorate them and make them their own. Limited to 25 participants. Appropriate for ages 12+.
Stephanie Sampson is a graduate student at the College of New Rochelle and will graduate with a Master’s of Science in Art Therapy and Counseling in May 2018. She is completing her internship at Silver Hill Hospital where she has developed and directed Art Therapy groups with all ages and mental health diagnoses. Stephanie’s personal art preference is working abstractly using paint, collage and other mixed media
May is Mental Health Month. Mental health agencies around the country celebrate this month with various events to reaffirm the commitment to build our understanding of mental health, increase access to treatment and ensure those who are struggling know they are not alone.
