Join The Jameel Arts & Health Lab and the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe at the Queens Museum for a high-level panel and evening reception announcing a forthcoming policy brief exploring the role of museums as global partners in health and wellbeing.

Bringing together policymakers, artists, healthcare professionals and cultural leaders from around the world, the event will explore how museums can support physical, mental and social wellbeing, and become meaningful partners in health, as healthcare systems shift their focus from treatment to prevention, and from hospital to community. The panel discussion will be followed by the official UNGA Healing Arts Week reception featuring a special performance from the Resistance Revival Chorus.

4:30 pm: Doors Open

5:00 pm: Panel: The Healing Museum – Reimagining Museums as Partners in Health & Wellbeing
