Artists in Healthcare
We Believe: Music and the arts transform patient, family and staff experiences in healthcare. They facilitate communication, hope and healing, and can inspire compassion and resilience.
Our Vision: We envision a future where music and art are part of one's natural experience in healthcare.
Our Mission: Our mission is to incorporate musicians and artists into those circumstances that will enrich the patient experience and nurture health and wellness through the arts.
Our live music program serves over 40,000 patients yearly, offering 8,000 hours of music at twenty facilities (pre-covid) in Winnipeg, Brandon, Selkirk Mental Health Centre, Bethesda/Steinbach, and at Boundary Trails. We have a concert series in collaboration with the Manitoba Chamber Orchestra through The Winnipeg Foundation that provides concerts year round. We have an art in hospital donation program which has gifted over $400,000.00 of donated art to healthcare facilities. We have an atrium concert series thanks to the Johnston Group which provides music in the St. Boniface Atrium. We have a Mindfulness, Music and Meditation program at Selkirk Mental Health, and a songwriting program at the Manitoba Adolescent Youth Treatment Centre. Our Art by the Bedside program at St. Boniface Hospital and the Art by the Big Blue Chair program at CancerCare MB were repurposed for the creation of art kits for patients during covid.
