🎨💚 Toi Piringa – The Art of Connection | Creativity & Wellbeing
I’m delighted to have attended Toi Piringa – The Art of Connection, a symposium celebrating the powerful connection between creativity and wellbeing, held at Tūhura Otago Museum in Dunedin.
It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the role that art, creativity and creative communities play in supporting wellbeing, building connections and bringing people together. 💚
As an artist, I believe creativity is about so much more than making art. It’s about self-expression, connection, belonging and creating opportunities for people to share their stories and experiences.
Events like this remind us how important it is to make creative spaces accessible, inclusive and welcoming to everyone, recognising the positive impact that creativity can have on individuals and communities.
I’m grateful to be part of conversations that celebrate the transformative power of creativity and its ability to connect us all. ✨🎨
