Celebrating Arts for Health and Wellbeing

This session will showcase projects that have made a difference to the lives of others through the use of arts such as movement/dance, theatre, music and augmented reality through talks, films and activities.

Directed by Professor Angela Pickard.

In addition, there will be an exhibition in Anselm Studio 2 titled ‘DISCONNECTED’, which will explore the lived experience of depersonalisation-derealisation disorder (DPDR) through the use of arts, such as photography, film and spoken word. The exhibitor is Charlotte Grainger from the Sidney De Haan Research Centre for Arts and Health.

Event Information

Our lunchtime events begin at 1pm and are free entry, but space is limited, so please book in advance to avoid disappointment. Children aged five and over are welcome if accompanied by a responsible adult.

When you book you have the option to pay a £3, £5 or £10 donation to the Student Scholarship Fund, which exists to support those students who would like to take advantage of an opportunity to extend and enrich their studies in some way but lack the resources. For example, the Fund would support the study of a second instrument (or voice); a masterclass off-campus; a summer school residency; or the purchase of specialist equipment or software.

Venues are on our North Holmes Road campus. The nearest public parking is in on-street bays on North Holmes Road, or the Queningate Car Park on Broad Street. Our campus car parks are reserved for staff permit holders only.
