If you have any questions about Art Therapy, come and speak with us during dismissal, or email Julia the on-site Art Therapist at jzell@hispanicfamilyservicesny.org. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638221325068-VU2TND77X9G00UROPCT3/Screen+Shot+2021-11-24+at+5.07.28+PM.png AnL7 - Art Therapy Parent Group The P.S. 7 Art Therapy Parent Group will be starting this December. The Art Therapy staff will provide art materials and hold space for parents on Zoom to create art, engage in self-care, process their experiences and emotions, as well as connect with one another. We know that parenting comes with its fair share of challenges and stresses, (this year in particular!) and we hope to provide you all with a supportive space in which you can speak about your experiences openly as well as take some much-needed time to care for yourselves and explore your creativity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638220215705-EN4N53RZWLGJ1P6O2SA5/jiawenhu.png AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290685635-M6OV5NJ0ZI6M6TSVL1U2/IMG_4617.JPG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290564654-N0N1UMSJJF6UFCK3S52P/Screenshot_20200826_225731+%283%29.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290888107-A1GBCVB7NITH2V0701JU/IMG_3837.JPG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290632598-2I3W8BKNSM9TPIPHHFXB/Capture.PNG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291014605-4BI3G1PPEDSR00Y20CMX/Reynelson+Albarran+Photo.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290965248-SOBZDW24RZZRKB662FOG/IMG_3836.JPG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638290833870-60Z7BLFTKO7JN192Y3J2/Athena+Magno+%281%29.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291559027-BOSYH5JJG74SJIHGXVW1/David.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291687628-SEHEOZAM8UNKI59M2JF2/Sabiha%2BNura.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291595599-4YT5U1L50E34R54CNA8H/Natasha+Jimenez+pic.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291868939-T381Y2A4ZJFKRO1ZRGCQ/Image%252B%2525284%252529.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291829611-PANK1EY2NR8E28YI3PSZ/Image%252B%2525289%252529.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291793623-SKXOA8SFW1QYMUZY6EHC/Image%25252B%252525285%25252529.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291948428-GFCJBVWVZD91Z79061HQ/IMG_3865.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638291985756-R2GK51UFH11KQYUJOB1D/IMG_3838.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638392029856-0HT46CX6X2Z8SD7H2XBS/Jiani+Liu.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638392092108-FGTN8P8XUARIMYSWTR8F/Chris+Kuo.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1638292059939-GHJWITIYBJ6PSH7M3NIJ/Image%252B%2525286%252529.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636046198458-OIXL3EVFE7W9P0BCAQ37/Untitled+design+%281%29.png AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636052130369-T77KP2E4IC8I299Z0IL5/184109B1-D910-4B2F-9C22-C42D09D34938.JPG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636052156605-ZAOW9UDDYKRI2D0IGGH3/DBA01E88-7E7C-470C-B6B8-2BFEF78E0FA0.JPG AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636052223866-3QSVRX3P2E550V62BYND/IMG_3738.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636052701508-4E7Y7TSIV76RL7JBPRX3/IMG_9712.jpeg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636053039547-8BEY6OP2MD4EX64237F7/IMG_3889.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636053513382-T8HFCCDFWV8EGZKHDT8M/1.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636053550400-3DS74SCLT0RYX4C2PMK4/2.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636053572372-G9OMH16UPD9FUK8W6DLH/4.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636053585369-N21Y4Y4SNWQM3J30MLAD/5.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1636645303862-NW5462PJ2LWUM7W6GQ4N/IMG_4011.jpg AnL7 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1637616306197-VUEGY507ZKIMOK5I6VCP/11B0C8CF-F378-4A37-AC52-346880EB7B2E.jpg AnL7 https://www.artsandliteracyny.com/anl377 daily 0.75 2021-06-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab170cd247e71d3c5a8486/1607019326696-VLTEJVMQS0KY00JKXKRP/Why-Cant-they-see-this-project-is-important.jpg AnL377 - Important Dates and Announcements!
