Collage

Collage Collage is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing innovative art programs for people living with cancer. www.collageforcancer.org

COLLAGE has established collaborations with several leading institutions including MD Anderson Cancer Center, Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. The core programs include Art Workshops and the Artist-in-Residence Program. COLLAGE's art workshops are led by accomplished, dedicated local artis

ts. Open to cancer patients, survivors, family members and cancer care providers, these workshops are based on different themes and mediums. Past projects have included collage, traditional Chinese ink art, mask-making, watercolors, shibori, and photography. COLLAGE has also been invited to host special large group workshops where participants collaborate on projects. With the art process as a focal point, participants are free to explore their creativity and
express themselves. The Artist-in-Residence Program is designed to bring artists directly to the patient - at the bedside, chair-side, or in a hospital waiting room. This program offers patients and their family members the opportunity to work one-on-one with an artist while they are waiting for or receiving treatment. Using an intuitive approach, the artist engages the participant in the artmaking process, tailoring the program to meet the unique interests and needs of each participant. The goal of this program is to offer an escape from the often difficult and stressful
daily routine of cancer treatment.

Art is able to transcend the boundaries of our physical self into the language of our soul. Creativity is a result of being vulnerable and open to what it is saying. Listen to your heart.
