Therapy Through Art Center integrates craft and mental healing through clay. The process begins with raw clay collected from the nearby Çubuk River, which is then processed on site. After receiving theoretical education in the conference hall, visitors shape clay in ceramic studios. This experience supports emotional therapy and self-expression. Artworks are exhibited on openable panels placed on the façade, allowing people to view them both from inside and outside as they move through the center. In gathering spaces and the park, visitors can enjoy while observing these exhibitions, enhancing their connection with both the space and the creative expressions of others.
