Join us for a lecture by Dr Clorinda Panebianco

There has been much speculation over time about the association between creativity and mental health, and the performing arts. This lecture will present an overview of literature focusing on the intriguing connection between mental health, creativity, and musicians. It will also touch on aspects of stress and coping in musicians, gender differences, as well as personality traits associated with creativity and mental illness.
