The Project
“Healing Culture” – Art and Culture on Prescription
How can art heal – and what role might cultural institutions play in this in the future? Within the framework of the programme, the Department of Culture of the City of Kaiserslautern aims to lay the groundwork for a pioneering initiative: developing a model in which doctors prescribe cultural participation. To make this possible, a feasibility study will be carried out to connect medical and cultural institutions, establish supportive structures, and examine the effectiveness of this approach through scientific research. In the process, new partnerships will emerge, perspectives will shift, and awareness of culture as a health-relevant public good will grow stronger.
The vision: to anchor culture as an integral part of prevention, therapy, and social wellbeing.
