Healing in the arts

 Our partners for Healing in the Arts are: Hospitals, Healthcare Centers, Transitional Shelters, Behavioral Health, and facilities serving chronically ill populations. 

The arts gives people an opportunity to express difficult emotions while going through a challenging time in their lives. There is substantial research to support the benefits of arts participation for people with chronic illness, and our goal is to help people on their healing journey. Contact us with questions.
