Welcome to
Art Therapy Express!
Our studio and community based programs are dedicated to bridging the gap between each artist’s capabilities and his or her imagination. Old and new friends, along with their families and caregivers, gather in a joy-filled environment to express themselves and connect through the visual and creative arts.
About Us
Art Therapy Express is a nonprofit organization that provides innovative, therapeutic arts programming throughout Delaware.
ATE strives to address the emotional well-being of the community through stress reduction, fostering positive behaviors, and implementing emotional support groups for program participants and caregivers. This is often accomplished by promoting individual self-expression and empowerment through the use of adaptive technology with custom-designed tools, art media, and equipment that can accommodate children and adults with a wide range of disabilities.
Testimonials
Haley
"I am honored to contribute and to welcome you all to this website to celebrate one of the best nonprofit organizations in Delaware, Art Therapy Express, on its 22nd anniversary. More importantly, as Lisa would say, to celebrate our artists in the theme of You in Unity."
Melissa
"Melissa has Autism. For her, the spoken word, especially rapidly spoken words that come at her in long and complex sentences, is a sensory overload. The written word, in simple, concrete phrases, works a little better. But what works best for Melissa is visual expression - a picture is definitely worth a thousand words in her world."
