CURRENT PROGRAMS
Art Angels Healing Arts Program: AAHA is a health based outreach program of MOCAH. AAHA
uses art as a tool to promote individual and social health awareness to support groups, healthcare facilities and schools. Healing arts is a creative approach to the therapeutic process where verbal/nonverbal communications takes place through various art techniques and practices that encourage self-awareness and identity. AAHA encourages participants to use multidisciplinary activities such as theater, dance, music, visual art, and creative writing to explore creativity and the healing process. In modern society the gap between art and healing is slowly being closed through the efforts of art-in-medicine or healing art programs throughout the world. AAHA is a healing arts program that seeks to bring these two disciplines together.
