Arts in Medicine

Arts in Medicine brings creative activities to patients through media such as painting, drawing, arts and crafts, and music in a format that inspires hope and promotes healing. Studies have shown that patients who participate in Arts in Medicine benefit emotionally and physically during their treatment. Painting or drawing provides a creative outlet for patients to express themselves and explore their creative sides and music, reduces stress and lifts spirits. These activities provide a much-needed distraction from health-related worry and anxiety.
