Virtual Mental Health Monday Arts & Disabilities
Presented by UAB Institute for Arts in Medicine
Speakers: Becky Leifman, Alie B. Gorrie, Kevin Spencer, and Kerrie Benson
In our second discussion on Arts and Disabilities, we will talk about the benefits of arts engagement for individuals with disabilities. Participation in the performing arts has been found to have a positive impact on self-esteem, social identity, and feelings of belonging. Our guests will share their work in dance, theatre, and magic!
