About  [Edit]

arts+medicine magazine is a world first - devoted to the subject of arts and health and the positive impact that arts has on health and wellbeing - for both clinician and patients.

Utilisation of the arts in healthcare is no longer viewed as an alternative approach; rather it is increasingly seen as an essential part of holistic healthcare that encompasses medical treatments, therapy, medication, diet and exercise. The arts can help adjust to living with a medical condition.

The magazine has sponsorship support from the Australia Council for the Arts, which also recently released its own book on Art and Wellbeing. Jennifer Bott, CEO of the Australia Council, states that "creativity is inextricably linked to our wellbeing - people's lives are changed, and communities and cultures strengthened, whenever imagination is encouraged".

The arts+medicine website is developing and articles will be reproduced progressively.
