The Art of Wellbeing Arts and Health in Hertfordshire
Creative Hertfordshire is planning a three year programme which aims to:
• Introduce, and continue to raise awareness of, the links between culture and wellbeing to audiences drawn from across public health and cultural provision.
• Provide evidence of the benefit cultural activities can contribute to wellbeing outcomes.
• Develop an overview of Hertfordshire’s cultural and health landscapes to inform future planning and partnership working.
Creative Hertfordshire will deliver these aims through:
• A programme of seminars, training events and conferences for health and cultural providers interested in developing arts and wellbeing projects.
• Information, case studies, resources and links to evidence provided through this page and on Hertfordshire’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) http://jsna.hertslis.org/top/healtdemo/artsleis/
• Partnership support to those working between the health and cultural sectors.
Look under Events for details of the Art of Wellbeing programme.
Look under News for examples of Arts and Health projects in Hertfordshire.
Please contact us if you have something of interest, and let us know of examples of wellbeing projects and activities from around the county.
