The Kingfisher Project Seminar - 'I think I must be cured'

Gemma from Salisbury Arts Centre ad Peter from Art Care invite us to an event celebrating the achievements of the three year Kingfsher project. You will have an opportunity to meet the three the visual artists commissioned to work on this project, as well as the premiere of the spoken word / dance film made by Jigsaw and the Kingfisher Project. I'll be going!.

Thursday 29 September, Salisbury Arts Centre, 2.45pm

Since 1999 Salisbury Arts Centre and ArtCare, the art service at Salisbury District Hospital, have collaborated on a unique literature project, using creative writing to promote wellbeing, health and self development.

In 2011 the Kingfisher Project came to the end of a three year Arts Council funding term. During this time a series of artworks was commissioned in response to the healing words generated by the project and an evaluation study was carried out by a researcher from the University of the West of England.

To celebrate the project’s achievements in recent years and review the wider context of using literature in the context of health and wellbeing, we invite you to attend ‘I think I must be cured’, a short seminar at Salisbury Arts Centre on Thursday 29 September from 2.45pm.

To receive further information or to book a place please contact Salisbury Arts Centre, Bedwin Street, Salisbury, SP1 3UT, phone 01722 321744 (Tuesday – Saturday 10am – 4pm) or email us at boxoffice@salisburyarts.co.uk
