Conference
Creativity, Care and the City (part two)
Organised by University of The Arts London (UAL)
Presentations, panel discussions & networking event on Arts and Health at UAL and beyond, with special guest speakers
This event is the second in the Creativity, Care and the City series, following our first event on 11 January.
University of the Arts London (UAL) is delighted to invite you to a stimulating afternoon of presentations, panel discussions, breakouts and networking at Central Saint Martins - all centred around the relationship between creative practice, wellbeing and health, particularly in urban contexts. It is open to anyone interested in these themes and working in Higher Education and Research, the Cultural, Public and Health sectors and the Creative Industries.
Along with speakers from the UAL community, we will be joined by special guests from:
Greater London Authority - Arts & Health team
London Arts and Health
Nesta - A Healthy Life
World Cities Culture Forum
Hospital Rooms
2-4pm
Hear short presentations and provocations from UAL practitioners and researchers as well as experts in the field, then join themed breakout sessions.
4-5pm
Meet like-minded people from UAL and further afield and make new connections in a facilitated networking event.
We plan to structure the breakouts and networking conversations in order to identify how creative practitioners at UAL and beyond might collaborate with external organisations working in the Public Health, Policy and Care sectors – and how to design our interventions in order to maximise positive change.

Hosted by UAL with the Greater London Authority, the World Cities Culture Forum, London Arts and Health and Nesta
