Arts and Wellness Newsletter
Arts and Wellness Newsletter
Caretaker: Diego Pettersson The senior population of the United States is growing rapidly and living
longer than ever before. Increasingly, senior residences, parks and
recreation departments, and community colleges are offering arts classes to
this population that consider the health aspects of self-expression. At the
same time, research studies are just beginning to sprout up that demonstrate
the health benefits of the arts.
The Arts & Wellness newsletter will be targeted to readers who are
delivering arts programs to adults or have the potential to do so. The goal
of the Arts & Wellness newsletter is to communicate in practical terms how
these classes and programs are developed, how they can help the program
participants, and how they can be replicated effectively. Classes dealing
with all types of visual arts, all types of writing, all types of dance, all
types of music, and all types of drama will be covered in its pages. In
addition, the newsletter will feature such topics as the latest
breakthroughs in related research, fundraising strategies that could help
pay for programs, and how artists can make supplemental income by offering
these types of classes.
