The LIGHT Festival assembles everyone in the field and all members of the public—artists, poets, practitioners, storytellers, and the like—who have an interest in communicating public health information in a way that is meaningful and resonates with all. This event aids in bridging the divide between public health researchers and the public by creating opportunities to connect with one another and explore the power of creative expression–art, letters, stories, and poetry–in building and restoring trust, shaping the well-being of individuals, communities, and the world.
