The Art Experience Inc

Our Art Therapy program provides individual and group sessions led by licensed art therapists, grounded in evidence-based practice. We serve people of all ages, with a focus on youth with disabilities, individuals experiencing homelessness, survivors of violence, military veterans, and others navigating trauma or life transitions. Through accessible, creative experiences, participants discover new ways to express themselves, develop coping skills, and strengthen emotional resilience in a safe and inclusive setting. The Art Experience is committed to reducing barriers through sliding-scale fees and partnerships that make therapeutic art accessible to those most in need.

Open Studio is the heart of The Art Experience, providing a welcoming space where people of every age and ability can explore creativity at their own pace. Participants have access to a wide range of art materialsboth newly purchased and gently donatedalong with encouragement and guidance from professional artists and art therapists. Open Studio fosters inclusion, reduces stress, builds confidence, and cultivates meaningful social connections. Looking ahead, we are expanding outreach and hours to ensure even more individuals and families across Southeast Michigan can share in this creative community.
