With support from 4Culture and Seattle Children's, C89.5 fm presents Coping 101: FOLK MUSIC w/ Ben Hunter - part of a student-hosted series capturing Artist Mental Health Stories. Listen and learn as Seattle-based roots musician & community organizer Ben Hunter discusses how Folk Arts bring all peoples together, why travel is vital in forming one's identity and how communities can take better care of the artists and musicians who sustain their culture. Coping 101's Artist Mental Health Stories amplify voices from King County's cultural sector to empower individual artists, uplift the creative community and destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and along with the art of Writing there are many healthy ways to find balance.
