ART THERAPY FORUM
Art 4orms is humbled to partner with Tuesdai Johnson, who will serve as our lead presenter for our first Art Therapy forum. We see higher suspension rates and overall economic disparity for our black and brown students who attend North Tulsa Public Schools. Our long-term plan will effectively disrupt the student to prison pipeline by rooting all of our programming in art therapy philosophies. Tuesdai brings a wealth of knowledge to this topic to kickstart this conversation for our community.
Art 4orms will continue to be guided by our community, the National American Art Therapy Association (AATA) and local Art therapist chapters to advocate for Oklahoma licensure and improving the health outcomes for North Tulsa Public School students.
