Lucille Venture (1919–2006), born in Pittsburg, PA, was a prominent art therapist who was best known for being a pioneer of multiculturism and equity in the field.[1] Venture was the first African American to become certified in art therapy, and was the first person in the country to receive a Ph.D in the field. Her doctoral dissertation which she completed at the age of 58 was titled, "The Black Beat in Art Therapy Experiences."[1]
Lucille Venture believed art therapy to be elitist in both access and education.[2] She aligned herself with Edith Kramer's approach of viewing art as therapy as opposed to Margaret Naumburg's approach of viewing art for therapy.[1]
Venture was a founding member of the Maryland Art Therapy Association and served as its first president.[3]
