SUMMARY:Creatively Exploring Health Equity
DESCRIPTION:In 2017\, Richmond Memorial Health Foundation (RMHF) began exploring notions of health and equity as understood by Richmonders by funding eight artists and artist\n            collectives to consider the following questions in tandem with their creative works. (1) What does it mean to be well? (2) How do aspects of identity\, such as race\, ethnicity\, gender\, age\, migrant status and socioeconomic status\, relate to\n            health outcomes? (3) What structural barriers exist to achieving states of physical\, mental\, and social well-being? The artists\, through creative expression\, unearthed experiences of the past\, realities of the present\, and possibilities for\n            the future. \nIn 2019\, RMHF doubled its original investment from 2017 to continue the creative exploration of health equity more expansively by funding nonprofit organizations that hire artists to engage diverse communities in participatory sessions in order\n            to lift up their voice and perspective in fostering solutions for achieving equity. We call this EQUITY IN ACTION! \nRMHF also committed capacity building funds for each nonprofit grantee to measure the impact of their programs. \nThis session will compare the evolution of RMHF’s exploration of the intersection of art and health as it relates to equity and the impact that creativity plays in healing. \nPanelists: \n\nKendra Jones\, Director for Arts & Equity\, Richmond Memorial Health Foundation (Funder)\nAlison McNeil\, Founder and Chief Creative Officer\, McNeil Creative Enterprises (Program Evaluator)\nAlfonso Perez\, Artist (Former Grantee & Partnered with Grantee Organization)\nGigi Amateau\, Writer\, (Grantee Organization)\n\n
