Why do they do it?

The Student Art Contest brings the community and hospital together in a very positive way. Students’ artwork brightens the hallways and brings cheer to both staff and patients, while instilling a sense of pride and community spirit in the young artists.

Impact

Each of the 18 pieces on display contributes to a calming, healing environment for patients, staff and visitors. Young artists are encouraged to embrace art and have an improved understanding of how it can affect people’s moods and outlook.
