Arts Spotlight: Arts, Health and Healing
Nearly half of the nation's healthcare institutions provide arts programs for patients, families, and staff. 80 percent provide these programs because they benefit patients and promote healing. We spotlight three ArtsFund grantees putting the healing powers of the arts to work in our community. These programs at the Museum of Glass, Seattle Theatre Group, and the Frye Art Museum are prime examples of the direct and intricate relationship between the arts, health and healing. All three employ creative strategies which promote healing and change lives.
