To accompany this we will be posting a series of videos from a people from a rage of backgrounds and disciplines speaking about the role of art in these time. They include artists, researchers, curators, and therapists talking about, why we need art in times of crises, the role of art in the process of recovery, how art can support resilience, and how art, creativity and making engage, connect and facilitate shared experiences. Videos will be posted on Fridays throughout November. You will be invited to share comment and engage in conversation with us at the AHNNA.” Gail Kenning.
