![Art therapist Katherine Pedrick and senior Viola Pande pose for a picture in front of the art therapy banner at the Children’s National Hospital’s annual Sunflower Festival, where Pande distributed the art kits that she made for her Gold Award. “Art is so multifaceted,” Pande said. “Even though I'm doing physical art— and I think physical art is really therapeutic because you are painting or coloring—art can come in many different forms. I’m combining music and physical art in [my Gold Award]. Music has been a really helpful form of therapy for me throughout my high school years and throughout my life in general because I can pour my energy into something that's not school. It’s also creating something [that isn’t] physical or visual.”](https://www.tjtoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/viola-image.jpeg)
