A New Art Therapy Resource

We are excited to introduce From Vulnerability to Empowerment – Art Therapy for Women’s Empowerment, a new booklet created as part of the Take pART! project, where femLENS is one of the partners. This resource is the result of collaboration among seven dedicated organisations, each bringing their expertise in participatory arts, education, and social impact.

The booklet provides practical techniques and methodologies for using art therapy as a tool for empowerment, specifically for women who have faced marginalisation, discrimination, or personal struggles. Through creative expression, we can reclaim narratives, challenge oppressive systems, and foster healing in supportive spaces. The exercises and insights included are designed for practitioners, educators, and individuals seeking new ways to engage with art as a form of self-discovery and resilience-building.

Available now in English, Dutch, Italian, and Greek, with more translations coming soon, this resource aims to be accessible to diverse communities. We invite you to explore how art therapy can be a catalyst for personal and collective empowerment.
