Visual Voices: Using Art in Research

A Participatory Method for Engaging a Community in Research and Knowledge Transfer

Visual Voices is a systematic creative intervention for use across the lifespan. It yields culturally relevant insights for reflection as well as improved self-awareness and communication.

In the spring of 2015, an interprofessional team of six graduate students of public health and occupational therapy used the Visual Voices arts-based methodology to conduct a research project on identity with a small group of aging adults. At this event, the students will discuss their experience and the project’s findings. The developer of the Visual Voices methodology, Michael Yonas, DrPH, Senior Program Officer with the Pittsburg Foundation, will join the students for the event discussing the evolution of the methodology and its use with adolescent populations.
