Healing Arts

Healing Arts Program

There is clear evidence that a patient's physical wellbeing is fundamentally linked to their emotional and spiritual wellbeing and that the expressive arts can play a decisive role in promoting overall health.

With hands-on arts projects for children and adults, colorful paintings and sculptures throughout Brown University Health partner hospitals, diverse arts performances and creative education forums for hospital staff, Brown University Health hospitals have earned recognition as part of a worldwide movement to enrich and enliven the hospital environment through the arts.

The Healing Arts program at Brown University Health is an integral part of patient care, fostering creative expression for adults and children coping with illness or injury.
