Arts on Prescription: Moving from Idea to Action
This community webinar will transforms community curiosity into actionable understanding. Speaker Tasha Golden, PhD, will spark audience interest and build the confidence to take action.
Tasha Golden, PhD is a touring artist turned behavioral scientist who speaks and consults globally on creativity, wellbeing, and change.
Dr. Golden was the first Director of Research for the International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, is adjunct faculty in the University of Florida Center for Arts in Medicine, and lead author of Arts on Prescription: A Field Guide for US Communities. Named one of Fierce Pharma’s “Fierce 50” for her work integrating arts and healthcare, she has published extensively on intersections of arts, behavior, and wellbeing.
Golden’s work emerged from her career in the arts. As singer-songwriter for the critically acclaimed band Ellery, she toured internationally, with songs in TV/film (ABC, SHOWTIME, FOX, NETFLIX). Her experiences on the road, and subsequently with burnout and depression, shaped her current work in arts and health. She is founder of Project Uncaged, a trauma-informed writing program for incarcerated girls, and developer of “How We Human”—a mental health training for creative professionals.
Dr. Golden helps clients and audiences combine science and creativity to advance wellbeing, innovation, and impact.
