Art and Health | Art promotion Scania

Project title

Konst och hälsa | Konstfrämjandet Skåne

Description of initiative

Art and Health is one of Art promotion Scania's long-term projects, which has been ongoing since 2004 with support from Region Skåne. The project strives to give new impressions and give rise to conversations and discussion through art. The idea is to provide inspiration for more cultural experiences outside the project, create opportunities for meaningful activities and shared experiences for staff and care participants from elderly care. Art experiences give people more ways to communicate. In Art and Health, artists work with their art, in the way that suits all participants best, in order to carry out as good projects with their process to be characterized by flexibility both for the art, but also for the participants.
