Abstract

This paper describes an experience of group art therapy with institutionalized children. Although several case studies are examined, an overview of the institution in itself is included as a variable to be considered in any art therapy project. For any art therapist active in an institutional setting, it is essential to work hand in hand with a multidisciplinary team, although this has not necessarily been the case in this particular experience.
