Arts-based qualitative research approaches are valuable because they can give researchers an opportunity to highlight the stories, ways of being, and expressions of a variety of people. Arts-based approaches can also give participants the space to share their experiences in ways that move beyond more traditional interviews. Exploring arts-based research is worthwhile not only because of the ontological and epistemological possibilities, but also because of its potential to shift the conversation about data sets and their value.
