The healing power of the arts
As part of Yale Climate Week in New York City, YSN presented “Imagining a Healthier Planet,” a discussion on the healing power of artistic expression and how the earth, arts, and healthcare intersect. Led by researcher-artists Susan Prescott, AZA Stephen Allsop (assistant professor at Yale School of Medicine), and YSN Associate Dean of Nursing Impact Christine Rodriguez, guests were treated to stunning displays of visual and auditory art, some of which has been used to study our interconnectedness to each other and the planet.
