Cultural recovery – researching the arts & heritage in times of crisis

How does the arts respond to traumatic events?

What kinds of social care and solace can artworks and the culture institutions that commission and exhibit them offer?

And how have artists and arts workers found their own pathways for respite and recovery from the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic?

This seminar series of international guest speakers will explore these questions and more through multidisciplinary lenses. Join us on Wednesday afternoons on the following dates:

  • 3 November, 4.30pm Dr Roaa Ali, University of Manchester – Diversity in Creative and Cultural Industries at the intersection of Covid and Black Lives Matter
