The Creative Center's Artist-in-Residence Program, a program that brings NY area art to the bedsides of cancer patients, is currently in 20 hospital and hospice sites -- Beth Israel Comprehensive Cancer Center, Beth Israel Medical Center, Brooklyn Hospital Center, Calvary Hospital, Columbia Presbyterian Hospital, Englewood Hospital in New Jersey, Lenox Hill Hospital, Long Island College Hospital, New York Presbyterian Hospital, New York University Medical Center, North General Hospital, St. Lukes- Roosevelt Hospital, St. Vincents Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Terrence Cardinal Cooke Healthcare Center.
"...As patients engage in the creative process, I have seen them, time and again, gain meaning from misery, comfort from pain, and an insight that liberates them. Artists-in-Residence: The Creative Center's Approach to Arts in Healthcare provides a wonderful view of the transformative power of art and artists, and reinforces the importance of The Creative Center's work." - Joel T. Katz, MD, Director, Internal Medicine Residency, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School
