The School of Public Health and Health Sciences (SPHHS), in collaboration with University Health Services and the Fine Arts Center, invite the campus community to attend the SPHHS dean’s seminar, “Exploring Wellness: Campus Paths to Well-Being,” on Friday, Feb. 13 from 1:30-2:30 p.m. in the Seminar Room of the new SPHHS Hub Building.

Our wellness journeys are unique to each and every one of us, and the seminar will cover the three dynamic and innovative approaches to wellness:

• Integrative medicine, an approach that treats the whole person looking for the root cause of symptoms for real healing
• Using art as medicine to heal and improve wellness in unique and inspiring ways
• The HEART (Health, Environment and the Arts) initiative, which engages in research and outreach that harnesses the power of the arts to address complex problems in society

Part of UMass Amherst’s Week of Wellbeing (WoW), the event will feature speakers Dr. Khama Ennis from University Health Services, Professor of Community Health Education Aline Gubrium from the School of Public Health and Health Sciences, and Community Relations Director Anna Robbins from the Fine Arts Center.
