Arts in Medicine - Curating for Health

Curating for Health

Curating for Health is a collaborative process that pairs clinical insight with intentional design principals. By working directly with staff, we match artwork to the specific needs of each space—whether it’s one of our Pride Centers, a busy hospital lobby, a pediatric behavioral health unit, or a women’s health clinic. This targeted approach transforms our collection from passive aesthetics into targeted public health tools, creating environments that support healing.
