AATA Research Roundtable

The AATA Research Committee invites art therapy researchers to present at the annual Research Roundtable at the AATA conference each year. The Roundtable is a forum for sharing ideas about on-going or proposed research projects. Those who are conducting pilot studies, those who are seeking design or methodological feedback from colleagues, or individuals eager to learn about current art therapy research may be interested in attending.

Anyone wishing to present at AATA's Research Roundtable should contact Sarah Deaver, ATR-BC, Roundtable Coordinator, at deaversp@evms.edu to reserve a place on the agenda. Presenters will have an opportunity to briefly describe their work, and attendees have a chance to ask questions and provide feedback.

Art Therapy Practice Research Network (ATPRN)

The ATPRN is a UK-wide group of art therapists who collaborate on practice-led research and evaluation ventures. It is not just a paper network: it involves meeting and working with other art therapists who are grappling with similar issues and is aimed at actively producing publishable research evidence for the field of art therapy. It is free to join, but a cost-based fee is charged for the twice-yearly symposia.

The ATPRN is open to art therapists regardless of their research or clinical experience. The ATPRN has the research resources of Goldsmiths College as its Central Academic Institution (CAI) but the direction of the research is led by the practitioner membership. The ATPRN will be involved in both quantitative and qualitative means of research.
