April 4, Healing Invisible Wounds: Art Therapy & PTSD

Art therapy has experienced tremendous growth over the past two decades, not only advancing treatment options but also advancing into different populations and treatment settings. In particular, art therapists have been working with a very special and unique population — the military. Thursday, April 4 at 10 a.m., Wisconsin Public Radio “Route 51” host Shereen Siewert welcomes U.S. Air Force veteran and artist Shawn Ganther, Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art Executive Director David Hummer, and U.S. Navy veteran Ken Amundsen.

Siewert and her guests will discuss the healing power of art for veterans who are dealing with the crippling effects of combat trauma and post-traumatic stress.
