Artist Vic McEwan from The Cad Factory brings together practitioners in arts and health to offer an experiential exploration of caring. With participation from the Art Health Network, NSW and ACT, Murrumbidgee local Health district, Art Gallery of New South Wales and individual practitioners and carers, we draw you into a creative reflection on what is it to care, be caring and be cared for.
