 AATA News
December 21, 2023 | By Carolyn Brown Treadon, PhD, ATR-BC, ATCS I am honored to announce AATA’s 2024 Call for Proposals and share with you some innovative changes we have made to the proposal process. Our aim is to encourage participation and offer flexible options to presenters. We hope that these changes will be reflective of our values, particularly inclusivity and accessibility. This year, AATA’s Call for Proposals invites submissions for three event opportunities: ♦ AATA2024, the in-person conference scheduled for Oct. 6 – 9 in Pittsburgh, PA;
♦ A two-day live virtual conference, tentatively planned for April 13 – 14; and ♦ Monthly Learning Sessions, conducted monthly. The sessions are live, conducted virtually, and then available on-demand. 
Here’s a look at the 10 most read articles written by AATA members for our blog. We give a huge thanks to all our members who volunteered to share their expertise in our blog.
Learn from Natasha Green about "showing up" as an art therapist and human, Shereen Bar-or Becerra's experiences as an Iranian art therapist, Sivan Perdue's expertise in art therapy among older Americans, and much more. Take a moment to read their articles, or bookmark this for later!
