Arts Therapy Gathering 2027, 12–14 February 2027.

Join fellow arts therapists from across South Africa for a weekend of connection, inspiration, collaboration, and shared practice.

This year, we are bringing the arts therapy community together through simultaneous hybrid and in-person gatherings at locations across the country. Whether you join virtually or connect in person with colleagues in your area, there will be an opportunity to share, create, reflect, and celebrate our collective practice.

Mark your calendars! More details about the programme, participating locations, and registration will be shared soon.

We look forward to connecting with you and growing together as a community!
