一些国家正在发展促进健康的艺术倡议和网络，一种国际文献正在涌现，其证据表明艺术对人们的健康、福祉和生活质量有好处。老年人参与文化和创意艺术可以提高他们的士气和自信心，并提供社会联系的机会。越来越多的博物馆和美术馆被要求证明它们的支出、覆盖范围和影响是合理的，一些博物馆和美术馆正在与地方议会、医院、学校和社区合作，以改善对其藏品的获取。有大量文献描述了这类举措，但关于其益处的经验证据还不太发达。本文报告了对惠特沃斯美术馆和曼彻斯特博物馆2012年为居住在养老院和辅助生活设施中的老年人组织和交付的一项健康艺术倡议-咖啡、蛋糕和文化的评估。这项研究确定了艺术促进健康方案的好处和影响，及其对老年人的可行性，无论他们是否患有失忆--痴呆症，生活在疗养院或辅助生活设施中的老年人及其护理人员。研究结果表明，这对老年人和他们的护理人员在幸福感、社会参与度、学习、社会包容性和创造力方面都有好处。这些好处是立竿见影的，并在他们回国后短期内继续下去。大多数老年人和护理人员以前没有去过美术馆或博物馆，该方案鼓励创造性的艺术和文化欣赏，促进社会包容、福祉和生活质量。该方案是可行的，并为今后的规划确定了重要的经验教训。进一步的研究涉及研究人员、健康策展人、艺术家、护理人员、老年人及其家人的艺术伙伴关系。
Arts for health initiatives and networks are being developed in a number of countries and an international literature is emerging on the evidence of their benefits to people's health, wellbeing and quality of life. Engagement in cultural and creative arts by older people can increase their morale and self-confidence and provides opportunities for social connection. Museums and galleries are increasingly required to justify their expenditure, reach and impact and some are working in partnership with local councils, hospitals, schools and communities to improve access to their collections. There is a body of literature emerging that describes such initiatives but empirical evidence of their benefits is less developed. This article reports an evaluation of an art for health initiative – Coffee, Cake & Culture organised and delivered by Whitworth Art Gallery and Manchester Museum in 2012 for older people living in a care home and a supported living facility. The study has identified the benefits and impacts of the arts for health programme and its feasibility for older people, with or without diagnosed memory loss – dementia, living in a care home or supported living facility and their care staff. The findings demonstrate there were benefits to the older people and their care staff in terms of wellbeing, social engagement, learning, social inclusion and creativity. These benefits were immediate and continued in the short term on their return home. The majority of older people and care staff had not previously been to the art gallery or museum and the programme encouraged creative arts and cultural appreciation which promoted social inclusion, wellbeing and quality of life. The programme is feasible and important lessons were identified for future planning. Further research involving partnerships of researchers, arts for health curators, artists, care staff, older people and their families is warranted.
