Creative Arts Therapy Student Art Show Opens at Towngate

Opening reception is from 6-8pm, Saturday, Jan. 21

West Liberty University Creative Arts Therapy students are putting finishing touches on art submissions for their annual Creative Arts Therapy Exhibition. The exhibition will be displayed at Oglebay Institute’s Towngate Theater, 2118 Market St., Wheeling, from Jan. 21 to Feb. 26, 2023.

“This is our fourth year that we are presenting our student exhibition at this convenient downtown location and we are grateful that Towngate Theater and the Oglebay Institute are so generous with their space,” said Terri Giller, who is the undergraduate Creative Arts Therapy Instructor. “I see this as a great way for our students to connect with the community, highlight art therapy education and educate about the role art can play in healing.” Read more here…
