Addressing global challenges through the arts and creative practices 10:00 am to 4:00 pm Friday 5th of October 2018 M Shed, Princes Wharf, Wapping Rd, Bristol BS1 4RN
We held a one-day seminar in Bristol to reflect on the potential and role of the arts and creative practice in addressing critical global challenges. The focus of our discussions included:
Where and how artists are engaging with social and environmental issues.
The challenges, opportunities and implications of accessing and engaging vulnerable individuals and communities through the arts and practice.
How community-based arts can contribute to improvements in the welfare of those living in vulnerable conditions.
Interdisciplinary challenges associated with bringing together science and arts perspectives in addressing critical social and environmental issues.
A central focus of the day was an in-depth review of our project. During the afternoon, we heard from other academics and artists working in critical challenges.
