The Art of Prescribing: Advancing Arts-Based Pathways to Health
Thursday, March 26, 2026
12-1:30pm PST
As social prescribing continues to gain traction across the U.S. and globally, the arts are emerging as a powerful and evidence-informed modality for improving health and well-being. In recognition of Social Prescribing Day 2026, this webinar will explore the growing momentum of arts-based approaches within social prescribing frameworks. Speakers will highlight how arts and cultural engagement support mental health, social connection, and community resilience, while sharing examples of implementation across health, public health, and community settings. The webinar will also examine what other social prescribing modalities—such as nature-based and service-oriented prescribing—can learn from arts prescribing. Participants will gain insight into why the arts matter in social prescribing, what’s driving current growth, and how cross-sector partnerships can help sustain and scale this work.
Featured Panelists:
Dr. Daisy Fancourt Author, "Art Cure: The Science of How the Arts Save Lives"
