Hearts Need Art is coming to a close. But, every single one of us absolutely cherishes every moment spent with patients, staff, and more.
Thank you for these beautiful moments of joyโค๏ธ๐๐
We love it when people stop us to ask what we're doing right there where everyone can see. It piques their curiosity and offers a small bit of wonder - right there in the hospital. Seeing them and staff excited makes us excited ๐๐ฅฐ

Art impacts hospital staff too. They often express appreciation for our time with them and patients, creating a sense of community. Like Lisa says, that's the good stuff โค๏ธ๐๐

Weโre deeply grateful for every single day we get to do what we love: sharing our passion for the arts with incredible people.
If you or a loved one has ever shared an art or music experience with usโthank you!

Spending time with patients is just as uplifting for us as it is for them. We often notice that providers can see their patients in a new setting, which can allow for a broader range of interactions and observations.
Good job, Lisa ๐
Help us out!

Our musicians spend some much-needed time with patients. It's a different dynamic than putting on a speaker with music. Our musicians are right there in the room with them; human-to-human.
You can donate here to support our musicians:

Some of our artists got a chance to bond and hang out painting out in nature - "en plein air" during Llano Fine Art Guild & Gallery's outdoor plein air event this past weekend. Our CEO Izzy even won "Best in Show" ๐ฅณ
Get out and enjoy the weather ๐

We hear from patients, nurses, doctors, and really many hospital staff: seeing these paintings on a patient's hospital window really changes the energy of the room.
Help us brighten these rooms by making a donation todayโค๏ธ๐๐

It's true; we often hear that pain dims down or goes away while we're actively engaging in activities with patients.
Thanks for helping us help the patients who need this kind of support โค๏ธ๐๐

Andrea, one of our Writers-in-Residence, sits with patients and really - truly - listens to them. Yes, HNA is a team of Writers, Artists, and Musicians; but a huge part of what we do involves being present with them.
You can help support Andrea hereโค๏ธ

Deb always brings a sense of calm and peace when she steps into a patient's room. Her voice is soft, yet full of the emotions she sings about in her music. Patients seem to instantly catch on โค๏ธ๐๐
To support Deb, feel free to make a donation!
