Holding Time: Launch Event
FRIDAY 19 NOVEMBER / 2-5PM AT OPEN EYE GALLERY / BOOK HERE
Join us for the launch of Holding Time, an art intervention designed to broaden discussions around the subject of breastfeeding, which can sometimes seem very polarised.
This live event will be the official launch of the project across Cheshire and Merseyside, supported by the NHS Women’s Health and Maternity (WHAM) network. There will be presentations by the lead artist, Lisa Creagh who will show photography, animation and video and readings by participating mothers. Catherine McClennan, the Director of WHAM, will introduce the event and share why WHAM believes art and health collaborations are so important for meaningful and permanent change.
This project is part of an NHS led conversation about the value of creative health interventions for women and children as a driver of health, wellbeing and resilience and is part of Baby Week, an annual event bringing together cross-sector organisations, families and caregivers to promote women’s health and the importance of giving babies the best possible start in life.
