This film documents the multiple roles Ault played in his life: family member, artist, art therapist, educator, and pioneer in the field of Art Therapy. Bob was one of the founders of the American Art Therapy Association, serving as its second President and leading the organization with calm and tact during the Association’s tumultuous early years. This lovingly prepared Memorial Service Film is followed by commentary from his former student, Randy Vick, who describes how Bob enveloped people with a kindness and sincerity that is not felt often.
