Stop 2: St. Cloud
Minnesota Art Therapists brought the sunshine to St. Cloud with our Second Stop on the 2025-2026 Art & Advocacy Tour!
We served approximately 50 people at beautiful Riverside Park & Pavilion, including kids, adults, and families! Fun was had by all with button-making, sewing squares on our Fergus Falls quilt, making new squares for our St. Cloud quilt, exploring client & therapist artwork on display, and chatting with visitors about our art therapy licensure efforts.
Special guest Rep Matt Norris joined us once again, and this time we got Matt to make some art reflecting on his adventures to Yosemite National Park and a “LFG” button in honor of Melissa Hortman. ❤️ Thanks for creating with us, Matt!

Stop 1: Fergus Falls
On June 17th, Minnesota Art Therapists took their show on the road for the first of four statewide “Make Art About It” events bringing awareness about Art Therapy through community Art-Making!
Our first stop was Spies Riverfront Park & Pavilion in Fergus Falls in Western Minnesota. Around 90 people of all ages and abilities dropped by during a warm summer afternoon, to make buttons on Maggie the Art Bus and make “squares” for our Community “Quilt”. So much creativity and connection shared by all!
