    Let's transform hospital spaces together! 

    In honor of National Arts in Health Month, Artwork Archive is excited to host a webinar that explores partnerships between hospital arts administrators, artists, and nonprofit organizations. Together, we'll uncover how collaboration can transform hospital environments into spaces of healing, comfort, and hope. 

    Hospitals are often stressful and overwhelming places. Yet, art has a unique ability to uplift and calm, providing emotional support to patients, staff, and visitors. As the healing power of arts and culture gains wider recognition, the need for cross-sector collaboration becomes more essential, especially in a time of constrained resources. 

    If partnering with hospitals feels like uncharted territory, this session will serve as a guide, offering insights from professionals who have successfully navigated the world of arts in healthcare. Our panel will include hospital arts administrators and an artist who will share their experiences and the impact of their work. 

    In this webinar, you'll learn how hospital arts programs collaborate with nonprofits and local artists to integrate art into clinical spaces, fostering health and wellness. Discover replicable projects, explore the challenges and rewards of these collaborations, and gain an understanding of the growing body of evidence that supports art as a therapeutic tool. 

    Whether you're an arts administrator, artist, or simply interested in how creativity intersects with healthcare, this session offers valuable insights into creating healing environments through art. 

    Artwork Archive supports artists, hospitals and arts nonprofits from around the world. We're thrilled to bring together a community passionate about arts & healing. 

    If you can't make the live session, no worries, sign up and we'll send you the recording!
