본 연구는 다문화가정 아동이 성장과정에서 필요한 심리적 적응에 집단미술치료가 필요하다고 보며, 집단미술치료를 연구하여 그 효과를 논의하고자 한다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다문화가정 아동은 미술작업경험과 연구자와의 상호작용을 통해 점차 자유롭게 자신을 표현할 수 있었으며, 자신의 감정과 생각 그리고 내면의 욕구를 미술적 표현을 통해 객관화하고 수용 및 해소하는 경험을 하였다. 둘째, 다문화가정 아동은 능동적인 자기표현, 자발성, 정서표현을 촉진하는 비구조적인 집단미술치료 환경가운데 자신에 대해 새롭게 인식할 수 있었으며, 점차 능동적인 태도 즉, 자발성을 회복하는 경험을 하였다. 셋째, 다문화가정 아동은 집단미술치료 경험의 과정에서 긍정적인 자아개념을 키울 수 있었다. 결론적으로 집단미술치료 프로그램을 적용하여 미술치료가 갖고 있는 고유의 독특한 측면들을 통해 다문화가정 아동의 심리적 적응에 어려움을 경험하고 있는 아동에게 서로 언어만으로는 할 수 없었던 방식으로 이야기를 나누는 장을 마련해 줄 수 있다.
