We are delighted to host Kim Morton on her self funded residency as part of her Winston Churchill Fellowship.
Please join us at 2pm on Sunday 21 February for An afternoon tea and korero about Arts on Prescription with Kim Morton, our current Caselberg Resident from Otautahi Christchurch. Please RSVP to janet.downs@icloud.com
Imagine a world where people have access to the arts for better health. Our mental health system is struggling to cope and it's time to explore creative solutions!
Arts on prescription schemes are well established overseas as part of the spectrum of social prescribing - as green prescriptions are here.
Kim will share what she's learned about how arts on prescriptions run overseas, and some initiatives in New Zealand. She'd love to hear your thoughts about the possibilities for introducing arts on prescription here. What would it take to make this happen? How can we connect the worlds of health and arts to come up with a non-medical intervention to respond to mental distress? What barriers need to be overcome?
Kim is the founder of Christchurch arts and mental health charity Ōtautahi Creative Spaces. She was awarded a Winston Churchill Fellowship to travel to Denmark and UK to investigate arts on prescription, but with borders closed, Kim leapt at the chance for a residency at Caselberg House. Kim is involved in national advocacy for arts and health and has served on the Arts Access Aotearoa board. Now living in Lyttelton, Kim says it's full circle, coming back to Dunedin where she studied law in the 1980s. It was a visit to the Kimi Ora Creative Expression Unit at Cherry Farm hospital at that time (which later became Artsenta) that sparked her passion for creative wellbeing.
