About this Event
Join Elements House for an open house afternoon celebrating healing arts as a pathway to wellness and recovery.
Elements House is proud to be part of the Healing Arts New York Network (HA-NYC) — a community of artists, creative arts therapists, cultural and public health leaders, healthcare providers, and educators working to make New York's creative health sector visible, valued, and accessible. Launched in 2025 with support from the Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Fund, HA-NYC is the first city-based hub of the global Healing Arts movement led by the Jameel Arts & Health Lab and the World Health Organization.
This open house brings that mission to life, with hands-on healing arts experiences led by our members and staff.
What to expect (3:00–4:30 PM):
- Floral Design — hands-on floral arranging in our Beautification Unit
- Documentary Screening — a short film on healing and recovery, playing in the Admin Unit
- Podcast Studio — record your own reflections on healing and recovery questions in our on-site podcast booth
- Creative Room — open studio time with hands-on projects for guests to create
Culminating Conversation (4:30–5:00 PM):
We'll close the afternoon with a facilitated conversation on healing and recovery in the clubhouse context, with members and staff sharing their own experiences.
Throughout the event, enjoy finger foods and refreshments — chicken tenders, mini quiches, a fruit and veggie platter, and strawberry lemonade.
This event is free, but RSVP is required — space is limited.
