The Healing Arts Program at Scripps
In my last 'newsletter' I mentioned that I would be attending an event at Scripps, La Jolla with my work that would be about the benefits of art in healing environments.
The presentation and dinner that followed where very well done and I enjoyed talking about my work and meeting many of the attendees, mostly donors and prospective supporters of Scripps.
An image to be painted by me has been chosen for a specific area in the new Prebys Cardiovascular Institute at Scripps, La Jolla. The works of other artists have been chosen for other areas of the building as well.
The 'take away' from the presentation is that there is substantial evidence of the HUGE VALUE in having art - the right type of art - in any healing environment. It also leads one to conclude that art is just as valuable in our own homes to benefit our own health and well being.
