The Campfire
Project
Therapeutic arts programming for refugees and asylum seekers worldwide to enhance physical and emotional support for resilience and wellbeing.

How can the arts make a difference to displaced communities?
We are building a sandbox to explore the therapeutic benefits of arts based interventions in reducing loneliness, increasing social connection, cultivating community, promoting resilience, and supporting overall health and wellness. By simultaneously directly servicing participants and facilitating research on our programming, we benefit the broader field, increasing the scope of our impact.
Our
Three-Pronged Approach
Local Initiatives
Ongoing workshops servicing asylum seekers in NYC throughout the course of the year, providing spaces for displaced persons to come together with fellow refugees, engage in arts based therapeutic programming, receive mental health support, and cultivate connection, creativity, and community.
