In Neuchâtel, Switzerland, a new initiative allows doctors to prescribe museum visits to boost mental health. This program, which covers entry fees to local museums, aims to provide cultural respite and is supported by research on the benefits of art therapy. Since its launch, around 500 prescriptions have been issued. Local officials are considering expanding the program to include other cultural activities. Key figures involved include Julie Courcier Delafontaine and Marianne de Reynier Nevsky, who advocate for the mental health benefits of engaging with the arts. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
