Volunteer Opportunities

Art Therapy Express is a Delaware Nonprofit Organization where children and adults with mild to severe disabilities (intellectual, physical, emotional, and communication challenges) freely express themselves through visual and creative arts. Our programs are provided within schools, hospitals, residential facilities, day programs, and our adapted art studio located at the Center for the Creative Arts in Yorklyn, Delaware. Art Therapy Express not only allows artists to create incredible masterpieces but also allows them to feel connected to a larger purpose and collective experience.
