Louise Nayer, instructor of IDST 47, Trauma and the Arts, attended the Associated Writing Program Conference in Atlanta Georgia where she attended a talk called "Writing the Unsayable" where a discussion of Maus by Art Spiegelman (which Ms. Nayer uses in class) focused on how structure such as using the graphic novel and following specific guidlines can help sruvivors of trauma to express themselves creatively. Structure can create a safe haven. Most importantly, art allows people to "speak the unsayable" and begin to heal. For more information about Trauma and the Arts, which is one of the courses in the Trauma Prevention and Recovery Certificate, contact Ms. Nayer at lnayer@ccsf.edu
