MNATA
President
Jorie Kulseth

It has finally warmed up
and Summer 2008 is upon us in
Minnesota. As the Fall approaches
it is time to consider making a nomination to the Minnesota Art
Therapy Board. One of
the amazing benefits of participation on the Board for me has been
spending time with such remarkable and passionate Artists/
Therapists. The board
needs fresh and enthusiastic individuals to continue the progress it
has made in bringing Art Therapy to more Minnesotans.
I have felt honored to lead the board for the past two years
and look forward to the creativity and ideas that
Nancy
will bring to the organization as the President Elect.
Please review the nomination form and consider contributing
to this very remarkable organization.
