Healing Through the Arts

2/16/2015

Sunday afternoon, I had the privilege of leading a printmaking workshop at Mercy Rehabilitation Hospital.
This workshop was part of Mercy's Healing Through the Arts program: a series of free art workshops designed to enhance healing for patients and their families.

Making monoprints with Gelli Arts plates and StencilGirl stencils was new to everyone. But after a quick demonstration, there were lots of laughs and lovely prints! They really inspired me!

I began leading Healing Through the Arts workshops after my own father was treated for cancer at Mercy's 
David C. Pratt Cancer Center. And this is just one small way I can give back and help others with their healing process, too.

I hope you have a wonderful week,

What a wonderful thing to do! Thank you for volunteering. Gelli printing is truly an adventure across the age range.

The colors are stunning, and the combos do a lot to make each subject stand out. Lovely pieces.

I am a nurse, massage therapist and artist and I am always trying to find ways to combine these professions...makes me wonder if there is a similar program at our local hospital?

I love this type of giving back, and I love the name of it too: Healing Through the Arts. It's so great that you could participate. =0)
