ARTFUL LIVING PROGRAM

For patients participating in the C4P group, the Artful Living Program seeks to connect patients with art, music, education, and wellness opportunities in the community. We aim to provide a wide range of events, such as concerts, exercise classes, arts and cooking classes, and storytelling, and patients are invited to bring their family and friends along so they can share in these experiences together. 

We hope to help patients address other factors in their lives that contribute to their health and wellbeing that might not normally be addressed in the doctor’s office. Our mission is to provide patients with meaningful opportunities that will allow them to develop new skills, connect with others, and improve their own physical health and emotional wellbeing. 

By partnering with community organizations, we hope to create a long lasting Artful Living Program that patients can participate in for years to come.
