The 2010 ANZATA Symposium to be held in Auckland on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 September 2010. The Symposium will again be held at the well-appointed Whitecliffe College of Arts and Design Campus in leafy Parnell. It will be a full and varied programme of workshops and presentations in several arts therapy modalities. As always this Symposium will be jointly run with the Creative Therapies Association of Aotearoa (CTAA) who will run a day of workshops on 26 September. This year CAN – Creative Access Network will also be involved on the second day.
The ANZATA Symposium is always a stimulating and exciting event and the organisers would love to see lots of Australian members making the trip over to New Zealand. It offers you an opportunity to network and share knowledge and experiences with other professionals of the benefits of Art Therapy as a sustainable tool for supporting well-being in our society and presents a great opportunity to celebrate and reflect on the foundations and practice of Art Therapy in Australia and New Zealand.
The ANZATA AGM will take place at lunchtime on Saturday 25th. For the first time the AGM is being held in New Zealand. We are hoping that many Australian members will make the trip over so that we have a representative group voting. If you are not able to attend, please ensure that you lodge your proxy votes with another member or send them to Sally Legg at secretary@anzata.org. Closer to the time, all the motions to be voted on and the proxy forms will be sent to all ANZATA members.
The programme has now been finalised and the pdf is available below. The registration forms and details are included in this pdf. You can register by mail or email and we are presently working on an online option – stay tuned!
