Art Cure: The Science of How the Arts Transform Our Health
Join Professor Daisy Fancourt (Head of the Research Group) in conversation with Globe Artistic Director Michelle Terry at Shakespeare’s Globe on 26 January 2026 at 3 pm.
Daisy’s research has revealed that the arts have life-changing power to unlock health and happiness – from assisting brain development, to reducing depression, stress and pain, to re-mapping neural pathways, to resilience against dementia.
Together, Daisy and Michelle will discuss the role of artists and arts organisations in society, how we can articulate the arts’ contribution to health and wellbeing, and why it’s important that we do, now more so than ever.
This event is part of The Globe Talks, a series of essential conversations exploring the work we do in relation to the world we live in.
