SUMMARY:Well-being:Medicine Needs Poetry: Reimagining Healthcare\, Healing & Human Connection
DESCRIPTION:Poetry is one of humankind's oldest forms of expression. Expressive writing is an evidence-based strategy for reducing burnout among healthcare workers\, and more broadly for making meaning of experiences that are complex\, uncertain\, and difficult to name. This\n interdisciplinary workshop explores poetry as a modality for improving individual health\, care systems\, and healing\, and explores how poetry invites reflection\, deepens attention\, and nurtures consideration of the full human experience within healthcare. Lead\n by Janna Lopez\, MFA\, Creighton University School of Medicine's Poet in Residence\, this workshop will ask participants to consider how poetic expression can support personal well-being\, strengthen relationships between patients and caregivers\, and contribute\n to more reflective\, compassionate\, and human-centered cultures of care. Participants will be introduced to\nPoetic Intelligence as a framework for cultivating powers of observation\, curiosity\, expression\, self-compassion\, and meaning-making.  Everyone is encouraged to attend - no prior creative writing or poetry experience is required. \n\n\n\nJanna Lopez\, MFA\, is the inaugural Poet-in-Residence at Creighton University School of Medicine\, and the first to hold such a position in the US.  She works with students\, healthcare professionals\, educators\, and healthcare teams to make poetry accessible\n as a tool for navigating complex human experiences. She is the author of Medicine Needs Poetry: An Open Invitation to Cultivate More Self-Care & Compassion Through Words. An award-winning writer\, educator\, and speaker\, Lopez previously served as a Santa\n Fe Poet Laureate. Her work advocates for the humanities as an essential component of health\, education\, and human connection.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Camille Ann Brewer\, MFA\, MLIS
DESCRIPTION:Camille Ann Brewer lives and works in the City of Detroit\, Michigan.  Through the process of textile construction\, Brewer’s artwork intersects cartographic and photographic images that speak to specific spaces and time. Weaving together of physical place\, memory with time is the core subject of this body of work.  \n\nThe artwork is built with time-period paper maps\, which illustrate spatial geography and political territory\; along with paper-collaged images of people\, places and things\, which tie directly to the history and human relationships in space.  In patterns that support the artwork’s theme\, the two disparate paper elements are then woven together to create a serendipitous making and aesthetic experience.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Comics Beyond Sight
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit covers a variety of creative approaches to comics visual accessibility\, and by extension visual accessibility broadly. Those approaches range from multimedia (audio and textual descriptions) through multidimensional and emerging technologies strategies (3D printing\, haptics\, and screen-based mobile touch interfaces). It demonstrates that comics can be made accessible. Learn about the international efforts of innovators in the realm of comics accessibility for those who are blind or have low vision\, assembled by the Accessible Comics Collective at San Francisco State University (SFSU) with the expertise of blind access professionals. \n\nEmily Beitiks was the accessibility lead for the content creation of the exhibit. She is the co-director for the San Francisco Disability Cultural Center (the first civically funded disability culture center on the planet!)\, and prior to that\, the director of the Longmore Institute on Disability. \n\nNick Sousanis (SFSU)\, the lead creative organizer of the exhibit\, is a Detroit native and was the first person to draw his dissertation in comics format\, subsequently published as the graphic novel Unflattening.\n\nView the exhibit anytime the Hatcher Library is open\, and join us for an opening presentation on Friday\, October 2nd\, 1:00pm - 4:00pm.
