Healing Arts Barcelona: Citywide Initiative

Healing Arts Barcelona is the first citywide activation of the global Healing Arts & Health movement in Spain. From October 20 to 26, 2025, this dynamic initiative will unfold across Barcelona and Catalonia, led by the National Art Museum of Catalonia (MNAC) and the Jameel Arts & Health Lab in collaboration with the World Health Organization. This event brings together institutions and professionals from health, culture, and public policy to foster collaboration and drive systemic change. Rooted in research and community commitment, it aims to improve physical, mental, and social well-being through the integration of the arts into healthcare and public health strategies. Under the motto "The arts care for us - culture is health," Healing Arts Barcelona will feature hundreds of activities and projects throughout Catalonia.
