In 2005, thanks to Irish partners, it was possible to equip an art studio in the Psychoneurological Boarding House No. 2.

Since 2006, exhibitions of the workshop’s students have been held throughout Belarus, as well as abroad. The goal of the organization is to show that a person in any condition is worthy of both compassion and respect. Within the walls of the institution, Tatyana Birulya also organized the Outsider Art project. In addition to this project, others are being implemented at Psychoneurological Boarding House No. 2. These include an orchestra, a vocal ensemble, a theater, a dance group, in which 11 people with musculoskeletal disorders are trained, a carpentry and sewing workshop, and a culinary club. Since September 2015, an art workshop has appeared in Psychoneurological boarding house No. 4.

"We did not pretend to create works of art with our wards. We did this primarily for their rehabilitation, so that the person felt comfortable here. The main task was to help him get away from his bad thoughts, stop aggression, a nervous state. We wanted he didn’t sit all day staring at the wall or the TV screen, but was busy, felt important, and unleashed his creative potential.”
