The art hive is an inclusive and welcoming space to create art and facilitate health.
It is voluntary and open to all patients and staff; you can come for the full-time or just parts of it as you wish.
It is based on human dignity and invites patients and team members to join and create together in a safe place.
It is strengths-based and sees creativity and art-making as basic human needs. It encourages self-directive exploration and creation, promoting agency.
Art hives are based on compassion and a non-judgemental stance. Each one is invited to “come as you are”. The focus is on the process and being (and not on the end result).
It has a community and environmental stance and aims to use gift economy and recycled materials for creative supplies.
