How Art Helps Us to Rise and Heal in a Crisis

 


Leah and Isabella have a lively discussion about how we use art
to adapt to crisis, what it takes to be inspired, and to rise to
the occasion, and for each of us, making art helps heal and
protect our communities.  


 


We also get a reminder from the playwright, poet, and author
Marcie Rendon (White Earth Nation) about taking time to
experience joy no matter what.  And we get perspective from
Chief Mutáwi Mutáhash (Many Hearts) Marilynn “Lynn” Malerba of
the Mohegan Tribe, on moving ahead even during times of
uncertainty.  Chief Mutáwi Mutáhash recently kicked off a
panel called Stories, Sovereignty, and Imagining Forward at The
International Festival of Arts & Ideas, an annual event in
Connecticut.
