Abstract
This review investigates the intersection of art and community health initiatives, focusing on how art can serve as a tool for health promotion, disease prevention, and rehabilitation. It examines the historical and cultural significance of art in health practices, drawing on both active participatory and passive art experiences. By investigating the biopsychosocial model, the paper highlights how art contributes to individual and collective well-being, reducing stress, fostering social cohesion, and improving mental and physical health. Through case studies and evidence-based research, the paper argues that art plays a crucial role in community health strategies, advocating for greater integration of art into public health policy. Recommendations are offered for expanding interdisciplinary collaborations, increasing funding for arts-based health interventions, and exploring digital opportunities for art in healthcare. Keywords: Art in health, community health initiatives, public health, mental well-being, biopsychosocial model.
