Join Say Ah! for this delightful Health Literacy Month Celebration with our Co-Founder H.E. Fisher. Fisher will read from her recently published book of poems Sterile Field and discuss the role the arts can play in health literacy.
In her book, Fisher takes an unflinching look at caregiving in our health care system as she recounts her husband’s heart failure and heart transplant.
This free arts break event is designed to nurture and support frontline professionals and care for the caregivers. All are welcome!
