Every year, Youth Art For Healing hosted an in-person Art Show to showcase the work of our student artists before the artwork is installed in healthcare locations around the Washington D.C. metro area. In 2020, when we were not able to host our in-person show due to COVID-19, we began creating Virtual Art Shows so that we could still celebrate the gift of art given by our student artists. Now in 2023, for the fourth year in a row, we are delighted to present our annual Virtual Art Show, showcasing the students’ art in videos and an explore-on-your-own gallery.
Virtual Art Show Preview
During the 2022-23 school year, student artists from twelve schools created 156 beautiful paintings. These works of art include 119 paintings for permanent installation in five healthcare sites and 37 Gifts of Gratitude for healthcare workers at three hospitals to thank them for their dedicated service. This is a short and sweet sample of their work.
