This article describes the pilot of a school-based creative group-counseling program for children called ArtBreak, a choice-based studio art experience based on the restorative possibilities of art making delineated in the expressive therapies continuum (ETC; Kagin & Lusebrink, 1978). The ETC features a developmental hierarchy in relation to how art is created and the therapeutic properties of associated media. Learning from the pilot suggests the ETC is a valuable framework for supporting groups of children in kinesthetic, affective, and cognitive ways. The article also includes suggestions regarding logistics, community, and future documentation and research. (Contains 1 table and 3 figures.)
