The Garden: A Center for Grieving Children and Teens, a program of Cooley Dickinson VNA&Hospice, proudly presents Art with Heart. In this unique program, local artists work with grieving kids ages 5-18 from across Western Mass to create artwork. The Garden believes in reinforcing the connection between the head, heart, and hand to help people express their feelings around grief. The artwork made in this program serves as a “container” for one’s feelings that arise.

All artwork created will be shown in different venues in Western Massachusetts throughout 2022 and 2023, with a culminating exhibit at 33 Hawley! Stay tuned for more details!

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Northampton Arts Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
