PUBLIC TALK: SymbioticA Friday Seminar> Julia Anwar McHenry

SymbioticA Friday Seminar> Speaker: Julia Anwar McHenry; Title: 'The arts and social wellbeing in Western Australia’s rural Mid West region: evidence, measurement, and challenges'; Time & Location: 3:30-5pm @ SymbioticA "Many claims have been made about the ability of the arts to positively impact on the wellbeing and sustainability of communities. Yet, empirical research in this field is limited and, being largely based on case studies and individual project evaluations, there are difficulties with the generalisation of the results beyond individual projects...Julia will talk about the issues and challenges of attempting to measure ‘unmeasurable’ phenomena, some of the results to date, and the benefits and challenges of a multidisciplinary approach to a compelling topic."
