Join Us at the AATA2025 Virtual Conference!
The Virtual Conference will feature the same aspects of AATA’s in-person conference that the art therapy community loves—in a 100% virtual format!
⇒ Learn from issue experts about emerging trends from around the world
⇒ Connect with others through informal “coffee chats” and meet-ups
⇒ Get inspired by AATA Member authors and the Member Art Exhibition—and make art during the conference
In-person AATA2025 attendees will receive a 50% discounted rate for the virtual conference.
Engage in World-Class Art Therapy Learning Opportunities
Content consists entirely of unique sessions not offered at the AATA2025 in-person conference in Portland, Oregon. The Virtual Conference will include sessions in 8 program tracks. Attendees will be able to receive up to 27 Continuing Education credits.
All Continuing Education sessions will be recorded – so if you aren’t able to join in real time on Oct. 25 or 26, you’ll be able to watch at your own pace.
Connect with Art Therapists from Around the World on a Platform Designed for Us!
While AATA has hosted virtual conferences before, this year we are using a custom platform that will focus on a better, more connected attendee experience.
Plus:
- Interactive, small group discussions, including Shared Interest Groups (SIG) mini-sessions
- Informal, morning “coffee-chats” to meet new people
- Break-out sessions to ask questions of presenters
- Art-making opportunities
Coffee not included! 🙂
What’s Included in Your Registration
Our goal for the virtual conference is to provide a quality attendee experience through world-class continuing education programming, art-making experientials, networking events, and more.
This conference will not be your “traditional” Zoom webinar. We will also be offering all new content (not a repeat of the in-person conference).
- Continuing Education sessions, including paper presentations, panels, and plenaries, in 8 subject tracks
- Earn up to 27 CE credits
- Shared Interest Group meetings
- Access to message other attendees
- AATA member-author chats
Become an Exhibitor or Sponsor
AATA2025 offers organizations, educational institutions, and art supply companies visibility through event marketing, digital platforms, and promotional materials.
The in-person conference’s Exhibit Hall is in the literal heart of the conference, which is the Open Art Studio. Our new virtual platform for the Oct. 25 – 26 Virtual Conference will empower sponsors to showcase in the Exhibit Hall or provide live, virtual demonstrations.
Please contact the AATA National Staff at info@arttherapy.org to set up an exploratory call.
Notes
The AATA2025 program is still being developed and updates will continue to be published in the program. If you have any questions, or need help registering for the conference, please contact info@arttherapy.org.
