The Oklahoma Arts Council is pleased to present the 2026 Oklahoma Arts and Health Summit, a special one-day convening that will explore the growing intersection of arts, health, and wellbeing. Sharing evidence, research, and real-world models of success, the summit will highlight how creative approaches are being used to support individuals, communities, and healthcare systems.
Designed for a cross-sector audience—including healthcare professionals, medical providers, medical school students and educators, arts organizations, and artists—the summit will create space for learning, dialogue, and connection. Attendees will hear from national and local practitioners and partners across disciplines, gaining inspiration from new ideas, perspectives, and opportunities for collaboration in the fields of arts and health. Among the keynote speakers will be Dr. Tasha Golden, recognized internationally as a leading expert on creativity's role in wellbeing.
