For over twenty years, the Expressive Arts Institute has offered education and training from our home in San Diego, CA across the diverse communities of San Diego county, the United States, and the world. Our mission is quite simply to spread the word about Expressive Arts  as broadly as possible, to raise awareness of theory-based helping arts to transform individuals and communities. We believe that arts based change within a community only proceeds naturally through initiatives generated by members of that community. In service of this ideal, the institute invites a student body that is diverse in terms of race/ ethnicity, gender/sexual orientation, nationality, etc.  We are looking for students who want to be part of the solution to the difficulties of the world and in their own communities. Our  professional education and training will give you the tools to be more effective in the work you want to do in the world. Join our international community of artist helpers/healers, and add your own unique vision into our rich tapestry of helping, healing and educating  through the arts.
