COLORADO BUSINESS COMMITTEE FOR THE ARTS

Denver

News: Health equity, according to a press release from Colorado Business Committee for the Arts, is achieved when every person can access and attain their full health potential. Unfortunately, barriers such as language and cultural differences can stand in the way.

On Nov. 30, a panel of arts and health professionals will share their perspectives about how the arts are a tool to break down barriers, reach historically marginalized communities, provide access to creative interventions and foster individual well-being and healthier communities.

The session is part of the CBCA’s ongoing Arts + Industry Forum Series and begins at 4:30 p.m. at Colorado’s Health Capitol, 303 E. 17th Ave., Denver. COVID-19 protocols will be in place.

Tickets are $25 for CBCA members and $35 for non-members. To register, click here.
