A recent conference in Newark, NJ brought together artists, health care professionals and civic leaders from across the country to share findings and program ideas on how the arts and arts participation can have a beneficial impact on individual and community health. A Tempo host Rachel Katz speaks with two of the presenters - Dr. Jill Sonke, U.S. Cultural Policy Fellow at Stanford University, and Alyson Maier Lokuta, Assistant Vice President of Arts and Well-Being At The New Jersey Performing Arts Center, which hosted the event.
Rachel Katz is the host of A Tempo which airs Saturdays at 7 pm.
