Can music, poetry, and creativity help us become more resilient?

Arts for Adversity started with this question. As a violinist and poet, I became curious about how the mind works and why music, poetry, and creativity can have such a powerful effect on us. I started asking experts the questions that fascinated me most.

Through conversations, featured profiles, and my own reflections, I share what I'm learning with other young people who are just as curious as I am.
