Healing Communities Through Art!





      The 24th Annual International Conference for The Global Alliance for Arts & Health was held on April 11 and 12th at Washington D.C. in the National Museum of The American Indian. This was my first conference with this organization and it was filled with fascinating presenters from around the planet, as well as inspiring stories about art and healing.

The Conference provides a forum for hundreds of leaders in arts & health, including artist, creative art therapist, art directors, healthcare providers, architects, designers, educators and researchers, to present and discuss innovative developments in the use of arts and health to heal communities.



And who could resist the full bloom cherry blossoms
and the 92 degree weather!





One of our great hero's, Martin Luther King
