A BOOK APART | Art Cure: The Science of How the Arts Save Lives by Daisy Fancourt

Join us and our partners at the Muskingum County Library System in reading Art Cure: The Science of How the Arts Save Lives by Daisy Fancourt and enjoy an exciting discussion led by MCLS Librarian Hailey Rantz.

This book is a fascinating exploration of the growing scientific evidence behind the many ways art and creative experiences can benefit our health and well-being. From reducing stress and supporting brain health to strengthening social connections and enriching our everyday lives, Fancourt makes the case that the arts are far more than a luxury—they may be an essential part of a healthy life. Come ready to consider how art affects you and why making, experiencing, and connecting with art may matter more than we realize.

This event takes at the ZMA in the Longaberger Art Research Library.
