Wellbeing through creativity and community.

Artsenta is here to support wellbeing through creativity. People with mental distress are welcome to come and see our amazing creative space and all we have to offer. We have an awesome programme of activities and opportunities for tangata whaiora - people seeking wellbeing.

Creative Wellbeing Sessions in the regions

Artsenta provides creative wellbeing sessions in a number of towns in the Otago region. These are highly accessible creative activities for anyone facing wellbeing challenges such as isolation or mental distress. The dates and frequency of these outreach sessions vary for each location. See our Outreach page for more details
 

Being creative at home

During Covid lockdowns we posted daily creativity tutorials and suggestions on the Artsenta Facebook page. There is a wide variety of ideas and activities to choose from and try out. All use simple things you have at home. Many of these activities are now listed on our Creativity at Home page.
