Where Art Meets Care: Designing for Healing

As healthcare organizations prioritize patient experience, staff well-being, and equity, art programs are emerging as a strategic tool for healing and connection. This interactive panel brings together healthcare leaders, clinicians, and design partners to discuss how art initiatives are planned, funded, governed, and sustained across pediatric, acute, and specialty settings. Panelists will share candid lessons learned, including challenges, trade-offs, and the role of interdisciplinary collaboration. Attendees will gain practical guidance on aligning art programs with organizational goals, engaging stakeholders, navigating approvals, and measuring qualitative impact. Participants will leave with actionable strategies for implementing art programs that enhance experience while supporting operational realities.
