Art Therapy Program
Kya’s Krusade in partnership with Columbus Recreation & Parks is pleased to offer an Art Therapy Program for children ages 4 - 18 with physical disabilities and their siblings. This program is conducted in Columbus, Ohio.
What is Art Therapy?
Art Therapy uses the creative process of art to facilitate each participating child’s self-expression and personal physical, developmental and emotional growth. Art Therapy provides children with the combined benefits of manual manipulation, creativity and fun!
Examples of previous activities include: bubble painting, collage window art, abstract t-shirt art; apple and potato prints; free form clay creations, fall wreaths, leaf collages and and garden vases.
- Classes are for children with physical disabilities and one sibling, ages 4 to 18 years old.
- Classes are taught by age group by a licensed Art Therapist.
- Children may enroll in 1 or multiple classes during a given series.
- Class sizes are limited to ensure that each child receives dedicated attention.
- There is no charge to participate in this program. Donations are welcomed.

Art Therapy Program Frequently Asked Questions
How do I register my child(ren) for the Kya’s Krusade Art Therapy Program?

If my child is not able to participate in all four classes, may I still enroll him or her?

How long is my child(ren)’s registration valid?
The program registration form is valid for the entire year in which it is completed. Individual class series registration forms must be completed for each series in which you’d like your child enrolled.
