In January 2024, Stanford University launched a pilot program to connect students with art on prescription. In the program, participants receive an arts prescription which contains 9 “doses” of arts and culture. Each dose is a single engagement for an on campus activity or event (such as attending a concert, participating in a workshop, visiting a museum, etc.).
