What's On

This panel presents a selection of Arts in Health initiatives promoted by Vall d'Hebron, developed in collaboration with artists, cultural institutions, and healthcare teams, where art—through music, exhibitions, itineraries, or drawings—becomes a space for connection, empowerment, and recognition. Each project demonstrates how art can open doors, imagine new worlds, reframe experiences, and build community. The initiatives presented here are living examples of a strategy that puts people at the center.

The Desvetllem la memòria workshops at the Museu del Ter are a participatory historical photography initiative that promotes the documentation and recovery of the collective memory of the local past. In this edition, the project focuses on the Casals-Gràcia school in Manlleu, which this year celebrates its 50th anniversary. During the sessions, participants contribute photographs related to the school and its surroundings, which are digitized and documented collectively. This process allows the identification of significant people, spaces, activities and moments, generating a shared visual archive that enriches the Museum's documentary collection. The workshop encourages the active involvement of neighbors and former students, who contribute with their memories and knowledge to reconstruct the daily history of the educational center. Desvetllem la memòria is a cultural and community dynamization tool that highlights domestic photographic heritage and oral memory, strengthening the link between the territory and the people who inhabit it.
