[ About Julia ]

Julia Vasko is an Art Curator, Embodiment Facilitator, and Somatic Therapist. Her work intersects in the creation of safe spaces for expression and connection: where stories are told, where emotions are felt, and where transformation and healing happen. 

She believes that Art has an important role in our healing as individuals and as a collective. It is through Art that we can experience repair and cultivate connection, and it is in creativity that we can access our inherent life force and imagine new ways forward. As such, she curates and advocates for programmes with Art that heal, inspire, and transform.
