SUMMARY:Social History Exhibition: Arts and Health
DESCRIPTION:Getting involved in the arts can improve health and well-being. \nPeople report that creative activities reduce stress\, improve mood and build confidence.  They’re also an enjoyable way of spending time with others whilst learning new skills. \nDuring Spring 2025\, Penlee House Gallery & Museum offered a series of workshops for adults in the local community who are facing difficulties or living with conditions which affect their health and wellbeing. \nWorking with artist Melanie Young\, participants visited the Gallery and used the collections and exhibitions at Penlee House as the inspiration for their own artwork. They used a variety of media\, including drawing\, painting\, collage and printmaking. This small exhibition displays some of the work created. \nWe would like to thank the participants for allowing the exhibition of their work and the project funders\, the Friends of Penlee House and Arts Council England. \n
