Thank you to Phil Oliveira and his wife Olivia, for funding this project.

I heard that staff and patients are very enthusiastic about the addition of local artist Barbara Healy’s beautiful coastal images as they provide a warm ambiance in the center and give patients a restful focus while receiving ongoing care.
Thank you to my local art broker, Denn Santoro at S&G Project Gallery Art Brokerage. S&G is committed to always working with local artists and installations in local businesses.
