Supporting Wellbeing Through Creative Connection
If you are considering using NDIS funding for any support connected with an activity,
please check the participant’s plan and current rules with their plan manager,
support coordinator or the NDIA before making arrangements.
Our kits are creative activities, not NDIS art therapy.
Why Guided Painting Can Be Meaningful
Artful Connections Gift Boxes are created by professional artist and qualified art therapist Deb Shapiro, drawing on her experience supporting older adults through guided art activities.
Each $79 Gift Box provides 6+ hours of guided creative engagement, with painting
materials, guided templates, conversation cards and step-by-step video guidance.
No art experience or specialist training is needed, although
some people may benefit from help getting started or taking part.
Each $79 Gift Box provides 6+ hours of guided creative engagement - Art therapist-designed, video-supported, and ready to use without any facilitation training.
