Description of initiative
Journey into imagination is a project done for the House of Patients and Relatives, a "resource" place outside the hospital. It has been going on for all these years, in close collaboration with the Institut Curie's care department. The art therapy program offered to patients takes place over a cycle of 8 meetings (with prior registration). Six to seven art therapy cycles are offered each year, accompanying about 60 patients. Within the framework of a supportive group dynamic, one Wednesday morning per week, participants are invited to relax and create with proposals that stimulate energy, imagination, personal resources and allow for self-care.
