Why Art?
Art classes provide a friendly and uplifting environment for nurturing mental health. According to a study by Stuckey and Nobel (2010), visual art classes were found to significantly reduce stress levels by reducing cortisol. These classes offer a safe space for self-expression, allowing individuals to explore and communicate emotions. Furthermore, art classes enhance cognitive abilities, as demonstrated in a study by Lappe et al. (2018) where engagement in art activities led to improved memory, attention, and problem-solving skills. Overall, art classes promote well-being, creativity, and serve as a therapeutic outlet for better mental health.
