Creative Rx -Wellness Through Creativity

Cultivate wellness, one creative experience at a time. In this immersive series, you’ll awaken your imagination and nourish your well-being through art, music, movement, and mindfulness. Step into a welcoming space where creativity and wellness come together, and enjoy the inspiration, connection, and joy that come from exploring creativity. This series will continue throughout the year, with new offerings designed to engage, refresh, and inspire you!

Art and Wellness

This experiential event will explore the relationship between the arts and human health and well-being. We will discuss why healthcare systems around the world identify the arts as a key factor in well-being, how Montage Health champions the arts locally, and explore the concept of “social prescribing,” and how healthcare providers can actually prescribe arts experiences.

Participants will engage in an exercise to help identify what positively contributes to their personal wellness and how to start building their own social RX.
