Creative Escapes: Free Webcast to Explore the Role of Art, Music, and Micro-Adventures in Mental Wellness

In a world where stress and burnout are increasingly common, a unique online event is inviting South Africans to take a fresh look at how creativity and small adventures can play a role in supporting mental health.

Hosted by CAMAF, Chartered Accountants Worldwide, and SAICA – Difference Makers, the Wellness Check-In Webcast: Topic 1 is set to take place on Wednesday, 18 June 2025, from 09h00 to 10h30. The theme, Creative Escapes: Using Art, Music, and Micro-Adventures for Mental Wellness, focuses on how everyday creative practices can have a powerful, positive impact on mental well-being.

The free webcast will offer attendees insights into the therapeutic benefits of creative expression and how simple outdoor experiences—known as micro-adventures—can provide a sense of renewal and balance. Experts in the fields of wellness, psychology, and creative arts will share practical tools and real-life examples to help participants integrate creativity into their daily routines.

"Creativity is not just for artists—it’s a powerful mental health tool that’s available to all of us," say the organisers. "This session is designed for anyone looking for meaningful, accessible ways to support their well-being, whether you're working in an office, studying, managing a household, or navigating life’s many demands."

The webcast forms part of a broader series aimed at encouraging open conversations and proactive steps around mental wellness in the professional community and beyond.
