Lunchbox Series: Arts, Activism and Public Health With Nancy Epstein and Clara Pinsky

Community-based arts have long exposed and addressed the root causes of poor health, such as poverty, social inequality and structural racism, and provided creative strategies for protest, resistance and change. In today’s world, community-based arts are more vital than ever for promoting public health. Join Nancy Epstein, a professor at the Drexel University Dornsife School of Public Health, and Drexel graduate student Clara Pinsky for a discussion about their work in the growing field of arts in public health. Participants will learn about Drexel’s pioneering interdisciplinary graduate minor in arts and health and innovative projects from the field of community-based dance.
