Reach for the HeART – A Beginning

Sin Sin Fine Art and Art In Hospital are delighted to present the inspirational evening “Reach for the HeART – A Beginning” that held on 10 June 2010. There are going to have painting workshops by artists, musical performance and exhibition of Geriatric Patients in past workshops aiming to let more people know about what the project is doing.

Reach for the HeART was a project initiated by Art in Hospital and Sin Sin Fine Art in 2009 which would like to benefit chronic geriatric patients in Hospitals.  We believe that the creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps people to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behaviour, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and achieve insight.  The process of art making could also bring joy and fulfillment to participated patients.  With the funding support in 2009, over 31 workshops were held in 3 hospitals for geriatric patients.  We are now looking for the support to sustain this meaningful project (also see attached stories shared by benefited patients of the previous workshops). 

The event is open to public free. We all wish to see you at this meaningful evening.
