ARTS IN MEDICINE PROJECTS Arts in Medicine Projects aim to use diverse forms of artistic expressions to facilitate healing and hope for patients and their caregivers in healthcare centers and hospitals. We believe images, music, nature and creative words are powerful tools in uplifting the spirit of sick persons. There is increasing evidence that the display of visual art, especially images of nature, can have positive effects on health outcomes, including shorter length of stay in hospitals, increased pain tolerance and decreased anxiety. The idea that art may have potential positive benefits in healthcare is not new and has been recognized by artists and healthcare professionals alike.Vision: Transforming Healthcare experience for patients and their caregivers through creative engagementsMission: Using arts to build positive relationship between patients, caregivers and healthcare workers to discover happiness, find hope and experience healing in the hospital or healthcare spaces.
