Laura Holford '08 is making the world a better place, as Harker alums do! She co-founded Introspective Spaces, an organization supporting healthcare workers' well-being through creativity and community.
Introspective Spaces is hosting a free, public event in Oakland on Aug. 29. They are marking two milestones: A new partnership with the UC Berkeley–UCSF Joint Medical Program, which trains the next generation of physician changemakers at the intersection of medicine, public health, and health equity; and a celebration of the graduates of their Healing Together cohort — clinicians who spent twelve weeks reconnecting with creativity, reflection, and one another.
If you are interested in or believe in the restorative power of the arts, please join the event.
Saturday, August 29, 2–4 PM
Destiny Arts Center, Oakland
